First off, some announcements:
1) PLEASE FORGIVE ME, EVERYBODY I KNOW!!! I have been horrible about remembering everybody's birthday and acknowledging them. No excuse is acceptable for this, but in my feeble defense, I have been very preoccupied for the past few years with my status as a destitute hobo-creature two steps from homelessness. ^_^ In any case, things are looking up, and my shame has returned with my fortunes, so please do COMMENT WITH YOUR BIRTHDAY; I will write them down and remember them this time.
2) Anime Boston Went well. As many of you know, we had nearly 10,000 people. Nerds everywhere have a new Mecca.
3) A couple weeks ago during my Birthday Festival Week, James, Adam, Joel and I went to Fugakyu, the Sushi Restaurant of the Gods. James and Adam had more money than they probably should have, and the results were the stuff of legends. Adam sent me a copy of the receipt, so watch for an update about us eating Foie Gras and chunks of 24 karat gold some time this week. Seriously; this meal was CALIGULAN in it's excesses.
4) Finally, the edutainment; I got an AWESOME spam in my inbox today. I will reprint it for you.
