    This year will be the …fourth? year I will be attending AnimeBoston. The first one was a fluke. Brendan texted me there was a convention in town and to meet him at Boylston station. I had nothing better to do, so I met him and a friend of his named Thanh. A fateful first meeting…

    This weekend I made a conscious decision about what I want to be doing. Now don’t get me wrong, I like what I’m doing right now, but I’m being pulled in multiple directions right now and I feel like I’m starting to come apart at the seams. I need some ‘synergy’. When I was a…

    I have just watched what has to be one of the most inspiring lectures I will ever listen to in my life. Randy Pausch is a professor at Carnegie-Mellon University. He has done a lot in his life. He was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He has somewhere between 11 to 15 tumors in his…

    Take a look at the picture from my previous post. Notice anything funny? If you can take your eyes away from those delicious cookies, you’ll note a strange line running across the bottom left side of the photo. I didn’t notice it until this afternoon. That picture was taken with my still fairly new digital…

    I returned from Otakon 2007 on Monday. It was a blast as always with some new faces and plenty of familiar faces. I put up a gallery of the photos here. I have to say that I definitely did not take nearly the number of photos I normally take. I’m not sure if its because…

    I still have not had time to blog about AnimeBoston, which is now, over a month ago. I have it mostly outlined to write, but I’ve just simply been too busy with work, powet, and upcoming convention preparations that I just have not had time to get to it. This evening whilst attempting to clean…

    As I said a few posts ago, I posted a video for Powet on the 4 Horsemen’s FANtastic Exclusive figures from their 7th Kingdom property. When they saw it, they said it was awesome and that they were going to send me the figure I was missing and a free T-shirt. Well the package was…

    Yesterday saw the release of another PowetToys video segment I made. It was very warmly received. So much so that, after posting it on the FANtastic Forums, the Four Horsemen (who created and sculpted these figures) responded saying that it was awesome and they were going to send me a free T-Shirt and the Variant…

    Since I’ve been back from the convention, I feel like I’ve been playing catch up. When I got back to work I was immediately hit with a highly urgent project that had a 3 work-day turn around. I also had a LOT of post-convention decompression to take care of for Powet.TV. We didn’t get as…

    Pictures are up from last weekend’s convention in Lexington, Kentucky. I will say that I am embarassed at how few pictures I took of people. Most especially the fact, that we never got a group shot since we try to do one each year. Most disappointing. Enjoy what there is. You can see them here.…
