wallpaper – post 126

Say, I don’t think I’ve ever made wallpapers of my pics for you people.

Would you like some?  Any requests for wallpapers?  What are average screen sizes in this day and age?

Just let me know which pic you’d like for a proper sized wallpaper and I’ll set it up for ya.

joe vs the toilet – post 125

So remember back in post 118 where I was venting about how the toilet in my basement wouldn’t come up because who ever put it on didn’t use brass nuts and bolts and so I had a big rusted mess and a crapper that wasn’t going any where?

Yeah, well I finally got it up. I had to smash the base to do it. Stoopid rusty bolts… So anyway, I with the old toilet up I was able to start installing the new one. Uh oh… new problem. The new one is longer then the old one and hits the wall behind the toilet. Okay, well the wall behind it is actually built out by previous owners so the old bowl wouldn’t have a huge gap between the tank and the wall… or so I thought. I go a head and start to remove that small piece of built out wall and see that it also hides a random pipe. Wonderful. At least the pipe is off to the side and I should be able to hide it again and still have everything work out.

This is just my luck too. Any small simple project that I or my wife try to take on usually becomes a large one though no fault of our own. We’re well aware of this trend in our lives. Nothing is ever easy. Oh well, at least I’ll learn a lot from this project.

Stay tuned to hear the rest of this tale in a later post. I might even put up a pic of the bathroom once it’s done.

Wish me luck.

please do not touch the artist – post 124

Okay so with AnthroCon in full swing I thought I’d share with you my first time at AC.  It was only one of two cons I’ve ever been too.

So back in 2002, I think it was, I decided to go to this thing called AnthroCon.  I caught a train to Brockville Ontario and met up with some friends and we all drove down to Philly.  Everything went okay during the drive there… the long ass drive… 9 hours I think… in the snow… backwards…  anyway.  We get to the hotel and we’re standing in the lobby and some greasy looking dude walks by and meows at me and scratches/tickles my back… o_o

What the hell dude…

Don’t freak’n touch me…

I’d only been to my first AnthroCon for 10 min and someone was mess’n with me.  I’d never wanted to yell at someone so bad in my life and at the same time I was shocked as to what just happened.  Freak’n weird man.

So anyway, I met some artists and hung out with gNAW a lot.  Sat is artist alley.  Sold some of my art, but to be honest… the greasy, Ron Jeremy looking, meow guy haunted me.  I passed him in the halls and saw him wandering about and when I did I turned and did something short of a run in the other direction.

The con was okay.  Lots of partying going on… too bad I’m not a party guy.  Never have been so I felt kind of out of place there.  I’m more of a quiet get together with friends kind of person.

So that’s really my fist con experience.  Something to remember but for the wrong reasons.  I did want to make a shirt for any future cons that said “Please do not touch the artist”

Anyone reading this at the con right now?  Is that meow guy still lurking the halls looking for victims.

~shudder…

Well all the same I hope that people are having fun there.  Let me know if I missed out on anything.

sex training? – post 123

What I do I like? Video games, Japan, smut. Now while I like all those things separately if I can find something that mixes it all then it’s a real treat. ^_^

So it looks like the Japanese adult film industry has decided to jump on the Brain Age wagon too and release a Brain Age themed video. It’s called “Chinpo o Kitaeru Otona no Ingenware Training” which translates in to “Dick Drilling Adult’s Lewd Word Self Training” and stars adult actress Hikaru Wakana.

Also the box says that it’s a one player video and it has unlimited continues.

How much does Japan rock? It’s rocks a lot ^_^

I wonder if it’ll pull in more money then most game inspired movies?

best news evar – post 122

guesswhatguesswhatguesswhat!!!!

Am I going to have another kid?

no…

Am I going to Japan?

no…

Am I eating ice cream?

no…

Capcom is releasing Mega Man 9 on Wii Ware! OH YEAH!!!! And what makes this even better is that Capcom is taking a step back in time and making the game in good ol’ NES style! OH FUCK YEAH!!!! I’m a huge Mega Man fan and so this for me is like having all my Christmases at once on top of my birthdays while having truly awesome sex. Seriously… I’m not kidding. They’ve even released some screen shots of this game in the latest Nintendo Power and an interview with Mega Man’s creator Keiji Inafune. Their is even a rumored boss list…

Concrete Man
Magma Man
Galaxy Man
Jewel Man
Hornet Man
Plug Man
Tornado Man
Splash Woman o_O

Splash woman? Could this be the first woman Mega Man boss? That would be soooo cool ^_^

I remember playing Mega Man 2 till three in the morning on a school night trying to beat it. The game instantly became one of my all time favorite games and turned me on to Mega Man games in general.

I currently own all the Mega Man NES titles, all the Mega Man on GameBoy titles, Mega Man x 1 & 2, all whole Mega Man Zero series. One and Two of the Battle Network games for GBA and Mega Man ZX ( I still need to pick up ZX Advent). I love playing as Mega Man in Marvel vs Capcom and the Power Battle arcade games too are lots of fun. I still need to get Mega Man 7 and Mega Man x3 on SNES. I never owned a PlayStation so I never got a chance to play the Mega Man games that came out on that system. I never really cared for the way the X series on the PS looked anyway.

So yeah… Mega Man 9… Joe’s a happy pappy…

Um… if you have Mega Man 7 and Mega Man x3 for the SNES and you’d like them to stop gathering dust on your shelf… I’ll take them off your hands for a commission possibly…

play DS… go to school – post 121

So back in post number 102 I told you all about an English teaching game for Japan called Moe Sta.  It had some sexy looking anime chickies in it.. remember?

Well, did you know that the developer, Mirai Shonen, is giving away a scholarship to Tokyo U?  It’s true.  If you study English with Moe Sta and take the Tokyo University entrance exam and pass (word is that the exam is STOOPID hard) Mirai Shonen will sell out Â¥500,000 (about $4,676 CAD) towards your education.

Now that… in my books is pretty damn cool.  When was the last time you got to go to school because you played video games. ^_^
