I’m sure the bigs news today has been Obama’s Inauguration, but really, I have nothing to say about that.  I’m excited, I’m glad, but it explains itself.  Now we sit back and find out just how much of that was true.  (Albeit, I beleive almost all of it was.)

Around here, things have been very odd.  I tried to get some decent pictures of thee crazy fog we’ve had for almost two weeks, but no luck.  Each night it seems to get thicker, to the point that it becomes almost Silent Hill-eque.  My crazy co-worker, (the partner-in-crime on the desk wrapping), wants to make a Pyramid Head costume and wander around with an air raid siren blaring.  I’d love to help, but the fog will (hoepfully) be gone before this can come to fruition.

I finally found out what “The Gift” from NIN was.  405 gigabyes of raw unedited footages, torrented and hosted for editing and fan-made DVD creation!

They included data from three shows, Sacramento, Portland and …. Victoria!  I do not have the ability to edit, but I am anxiously awaiting the many DVDs and videos that will come.  I ranted and raved about the Lights in the Sky concert when I saw it, and it truly is an experience that deserves a recording to immortalize it in the digital era of cheap pop music.  I am vastly excited, and knowing how the fans are, I’m sure at least one DVD will be made!

Oh, and 320 kbps rips of the Victoria audio!  Getting it now as I post. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=X2OTDDIW

My photos from the con are finally online!  I will write up a few more posts later about the really neat highlights and such, but this is a start.  Just do not have the time to write more posts.

My Camera

Friend’s Camera

We were both wearing costumes, so half the time one of us would be posting while the other one was taking photos with both cameras.

Back from Anime Evolution.  List of anime to watch practically double, and this year I may actually catch up.  Many more posts and photos to come.
