    Last night some maintenance was done to the server that this site resides on. mySQL was upgraded to a newer version. Since then I have attempted to load this page and found the database to be inaccessible on 4 separate occassions. I have gotten on a live chat with support each time and the database…

    I managed to get a number of the galleries up that I mentioned earlier. Botcon 2001 Botcon 2002 Botcon 2003 All are up and ready for your viewing pleasure. I might go back and rotate some of the images later on, but they’re viewable as is. OTFCC 2004 will be coming soon as I have…

    Botcon 2006 is less than a week away. I have a number of pre-convention rituals and one of them is reviewing pictures from prior years. Since I missed last year’s Botcon in Texas, I clearly have not looked at the Botcon pictures in a while. While browsing through the site today I realized that I…

    I recently got a Nintendo DS for my birthday. I have to say I really have not put it down since I got it. I say this entirely due to one game. New Super Mario Bros. I haven’t actually enjoyed playing a game this much since…well I can’t ever remember enjoying a game this much.…

    I have been slacking quite a bit on the flash game front. This week brings us an addictive little game we like to call Sudoku. This is not flash, so its a slight misnomer. Fun, nonetheless. Link.

    Tuesday night I had some free time and was able to sit down and finally open up the Naruto: Ninja Council game I bought over the weekend during the huge toy run with Brendan and Thanh. I think the instant messenger log with Brendan that night sums it up best: [21:25] Me: irrationaly fury! i…

    This weekend, Brendan, Thanh and I all went to a antique and collectible toy show in Dedham. It took us about 30 minutes to determine that no dealer at the show was selling anything we were interested. If I paid more than four dollars to get in, I might have been upset. We decided to…

    So I put up the new vlog for powet.tv yesterday morning around 2:30 EST or so. As of last night at about 23:30 EST, the video was the 26th most watched video on YouTube for the day. Last night I was also offered a cross-promotion deal with a popular message board to host my videos.…

    This is a bit of a rant, but I needed to get it out of my system. There are two types of people in fandoms based around franchises. The first type is the fan. The fan is a member of the fandom who really enjoys the franchise. By that, I mean they are actively engaged…
