Ahoy hoy,

Alright, I got couple big annocements. First off, the comic… I really don’t know what to say about it but to point everyone to this image.

The picture was taken at Otakon 2003. It was my first time going to any con, so seeing something like that was pretty scary for me. Oh well, I’ll get use to it as I go to more cons every year. Speaking of cons, Ananth, Emily, Naku and myself will be at Katsucon this year. The forum has a thread about Katsucon 2004, so if you’re going let us know and hope to see you there.

Second, some of you might have notice the talkback link is gone…I took it down. Why? Well, Applegeeks now has an official forum. After thinking and thinking, I finally decided to try having a forum. Some people actually told me I was being brave. I’m not brave…I’m just..nuts. I hope everybody likes it and doesn’t abuse it like some forums out there. I would like to keep the forums clean. Like any other forums, you will have to register to post.

Third, We are still taking pre-orders for the power symbol shirts this week. Kurt will start printing the shirts around the 28th. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.

Lastly, I would like to thank DShadow for giving me the code to do a RSS feed for the comics.

That is all for now, I need to get ready and go to work.

It’s 2:00am, the new comic is up but I’m too tired to rant. I’ll rant when I wake up. Night!

Yesterday Em and I, somehow, watched 3 movies. Those movies were Donnie Darko, The Ring, and What Dreams May Come. It was the first time I saw any of them (I know, I’m slow). I’m not really gonna talk about the movies much … the real point to me telling you all this (since I try not to use this as blogspace) is so I can let you guys in on this wierd dream I had, which most of you will hopefully find entertaining. Or disturbing. /I/ was entertained.

Okay, so in the dream, I’m somehow on Jeopardy. The whole ordeal had very FLCL sensibilities, which is to say that it had very little sense at all. Anyway, I’m playing against Robin Williams from What Dreams May Come and Samara (the creepy girl) from The Ring. The host is Donnie Darko. So Robin Williams and I are basically neck and neck with the score - the little creepy girl is losing miserably. It’s mostly due to the fact that her answer to every question is “Seeeven Daaays”. The little girl is getting more and more pissed as the game goes on … I end up with the highest score, since most of the categories are anime-based. We get to Final Jeopardy, and the little girl can’t write because her hands are all funky and grotesque (that’s what years of hate at the bottom of a well do to you, I suppose), so she starts to flip out. She kills Robin Williams, first thing. Then Donnie Darko, who has been quite in charge the whole time, drops a plane on her.

That was about the end of it. I, uh … I’d better just go now. I’ve been drinking a lot of Coke. Sleep seems like a mistake at this point.

Update: I got word from Kurt, the shirts will not be made until around the 28th, so we’ll be taking pre-orders until then. If youhave any questions, feel free to email me.

Update: From the man behind the curtain who has hijacked Hawk’s account….

2X and 3X sizes are now available for pre-ordering.


A lot of people asked for it and now it’s finally here. We’re now taking pre-order of the power symbol shirt. Power On!

Alright, this is getting on my nerves. About the whole issue with the weight and height. We know it’s wrong, those are some numbers I added for fillers and forgot to ask Ananth to give me the real numbers. Ananth already gave me updated cast info, just give me time to fix it, I’m trying my best to get a lot of work done. We also posted that we were going to fix it. So please, chill.
