The last few days have been cool. I’ve been out, and busy…Exciting adventurous things have happened too. I was in Oahu for a day with Dean. Which was really cool. We went shopping, and watched movies, and just relaxed at his brother’s apartment. I got three Jpop CDs at this um… really awesome store… and now all my American CDs are totally put to shame by the flashy fancy packaging of these imports from the land of the rising sun. I’m trying to talk Nutari kun and the rest of taxsquad to let me publish a clever and impish review of the CDs on their website… We’ll see what happens.
Other adventures from the last few days now available in VHS and DVD format include these exciting titles:
“Penny Packs Like a Mad Mule!” In which our hero Penny Yoshinobu is seen hurriedly packing all of her worldly possessions into big brown cardboard boxes in preparation for her big move to the mainland. As always, evil villains (in this episode known as “Procrastination” and “Laziness”) try to stop her. Will she master the art of martial arts packing in time to catch her flight and save the world from the herd of rampaging mules stampeding towards the center of Hilo? Come Monday, June 11, all will be made clear. (aprox. running time: 21 minutes)
Back to back with:
“Penny Framed and Deceived, But Thrown a Going-Away-Party Anyway.” In this exciting adventure, Penny, in the guise of mild mannered Starla, by means of an anonymous phone call to her boss, is accused of plotting evil against the company she works for (namely, plotting to sneak friends into the theater and steal lots of concession.) However, because of Starla’s good reputation and the caller’s insistence to remain anonymous as well as his unwillingness to provide specific information, Starla’s boss laughs at the caller after she hangs up the phone and throws Starla a surprise fare-well party 2 days later. The question remains: Will Penny seek revenge? (aprox. running time: 19 minutes)
In other news: I’m hungry… and craving hot soup because I think I’m getting sick. So I shall leave you all for a while. Good day, ladies and Gents.
Comment Topic of the Day: As tribute to the long weeks of teaching from Kiley-Sifu and the extended use of his broadsword, I ask that any commentors do some kind of um… dramatic martial arts-text type moves somewhere in your comment… you know “*bob does a backflip and lands perfectly*” I had to return the sword yesterday… and I’m sad. Bonus points for anyone who uses a sword in your comment.

No. I will not let you go. You have much to learn from me. I still am to show you the ancient art of…
*subtitles appear*
Boo Fu!
Boo fu is an ancient art passed down from shepherd to shepherd…
Now cut that out!
I mean it! I’ve got a mercury rifle and I’m not afraid to use it!
THAT’S IT!
*Durandal assumes his true form as Counte Roland’s legendary sword and promptly slices the subtitlists’ heads in two.*
Yes. You must go out, and learn UNIX programming in C, Perl, and shell scripting.
Hit me the next time I attempt to calculate the total worth of buying a Chai for you.
I think I would miss you when you move away, except that you will still have an online presence, ne?

Ok. :) Next time, I’ll hit you. don’t worry. That might have been the last time I’ll see you too… *sniff* I bought myself a chai after you left, so don’t worry. I got my chai… but didn’t get to hang out with you much.
Anyway… you get bonus points for mentioning a sword. *grins*
la tee dah. see you. :)

entering into hilo seeking some chai and a visit with her friend Starladear, Angelchild journies to the local 7-11 only to find that they have discontinued chai at the request of idiodic parents who demand there be hot chocolate for their demented children who would actually rather have slurpees. crest fallen she decides to go to kress to see Starla, and maybe they could get some chai at Bears. But then in comes amy…and says: no, don’t visit work, she may get into trouble. so angelchild does not visit, so she decides to call starla at home. as she reaches for her bag to pull out her phone book a masked figure weilding a sword. before she knows what is happening he has sliced the strap of her bag and snatched it away, into wainaku…never to be seen from again…
‘damn. that was my favorite bag too. no starla, no chai…guess i’ll just go to wal-mart and bum some orange juice off of someone.’
angelchild walks slowly back towards wal-mart, and once there runs into robert smith, who offers her some of his orange juice to cheer her up…’hey, i’ll even buy you some oreos’.
i love you em!
