Failure D:
Oct. 28th, 2007 01:51 pmWaaargh >_< My copy of Gurren Lagann episode 24 is corrupted and/or otherwise dead! Failure, system DD: I was hoping to finish that today, darnit! And unless by some miracle I find either a MU link to it or a link just about anywhere else where the file is in the 100 MB size range, it's probably not going to happen. How depressing. Must not resort to watching non-US-aired Avatar in an attempt to cheer self up!
Sadly, I also put the wrong stamp on the envelope I was using to send out payment for Sonoko's next dose of userpics (plus paid account and userpics for another two months after), so they are out at the moment. And may not be back on time for Hallowe'en, when I was planning to take advantage of canon and dress her up as a witch :( Ah, well. I guess I'll just have to do it next year or something.
On a different note! AI meeting this Saturday, which coincides with Icon. (I-con? Bah. Local sci-fi con that usually gets about 300 people.) Following this is a Hallowe'en party with friends, hurrah! And then next Saturday is a Quire concert with the One Voice chorus from. I wanna say the Twin Cities area? But I don't know for sure. Anyway, it's a fund raiser for the Quire, so think about maybe coming if you can make it and your wallet isn't stretched too thin. I'm supposed to have Concord memorized for tonight aren't I. Whoops ¦3;
Will be getting off my lazy butt and looking more carefully into getting a job this week, I swear.
Edit: HTML failure corrected. This is just not my day...
Edit 2: WAIT, I forgot something! Someone plz to tell me that Simon's name is not actually a play on the word semen. Plz plz plz.

Date: 2007-10-28 08:29 pm (UTC)ALSO. Off-topic. Have you um. Have you seen episode 19 of Storm Hawks, InFinnity? .....Because I have. Also I was wondering if you knew any good ways to screencap embedded flash videos. Because I want to screencap it, but both my regular screencap utility and two separate programs failed miserably.
PS: YOU WERE RIGHT. I ADORED STORK IN 18. I DIED. A LOT.`

Date: 2007-10-30 12:10 am (UTC)I have not yet! DD: This is because I have been unable thus far not only to find a copy, but to find out when the @#$%$# CN is showing Storm Hawks these days, as it is not on during the last time slot I knew of. Try ctrl + Print Screen, then pasting into your image editing program? And if that doesn't work, I've got nothing. Lemme know where I can find a copy and I'll try and 'cap for you, I guess?
PS: VICTORY FOR ME! WHO WAS RIGHT? THAT'S RIGHT, I WAS.

Date: 2007-10-30 02:09 am (UTC)I watched it on Cartoon Network Video, where they have it streaming. I can't find when it's going to air, either. And ah. What I meant by "regular screencap utility" was what you just said. ^^; Sorry that wasn't clearer.
PS: NOT LIKE IT WAS THAT HARD TO FORESEE. I MEAN, WHO WOULDN'T LOVE CAPTAIN AHAB!STORK, AMIRITE?

Date: 2007-10-30 02:15 am (UTC)I may have to borrow a pair of headphones now, OMG. And I assume they'll put it back on regular programming when they're done with this Hallowe'en Goosebumps thing, but I'm still irritated by it :/ Oh, rite, okay. Sorry, no other ideas.
PS: OKAY, THAT'S TRUE ENOUGH. BUT MAN, WAS THAT AN AWESOME EPISODE OR WAS THAT AN AWESOME EPISODE? ALSO, HILARIOUS. IT WAS HILARITASTIC.

Date: 2007-10-30 02:25 am (UTC)IT'S KIND OF AMAZING, OKAY. ALL THESE FINNS RUNNING AROUND THE CONDOR BEING RETARDS. IT'S GREAT. I hope so, but I checked the online schedule for Saturday (the 3rd) and no such luck. :/
PS: I LOVED IT WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE IN ME. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME MORE STORK-BRAND AWESOME NOW, NERD CORPS.
I WAS ALSO FOND OF "ESCAPE." JUST SAYING. ALTHOUGH THAT WAS FOR SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT REASONS.no subject
Date: 2007-10-30 02:33 am (UTC)I SHALL CERTAINLY HAVE TO WATCH IT TOMORROW OR SOMETHING. Multiple Finns can only mean for much gut-busting. Fail, CN. Minor fail.
I. I should really just finally read Moby Dick and get it over with. *hardly got 1/4 of the way through the last time she tried* ALSO, HAVE YOU GIVEN ANY MORE THOUGHT TO APPING, JUST THOUGHT I'D ASK.
Wait wait, I totally have the perfect link for this, okay her it is, IS THIS WHY YOU LIKED IT LYZZ, YOU HAVE TO TELL ME.no subject
Date: 2007-10-30 02:58 am (UTC)YES. ALSO APPARENTLY AERROW CAN PLAY THE ACCORDION. AND FINN LIEK PUPPETS.
I've never tried to read it, actually! :D I've just seen all sorts of cartoon parodies about it. UH NO NOT REALLY ACTUALLY. ALTHOUGH I MIGHT COULD BE TEMPTED INTO BEING DESPERATE ENOUGH FOR A STORK.
M-M-MAYBE? ALTHOUGH IT COULD ALSO BE SOMEWHAT BECAUSE OF THIS (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/lyzz/vlcsnap-00008.png). OR THIS (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/lyzz/vlcsnap-00011.png). OR (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/lyzz/vlcsnap-00012.png) okay i think maybe you get the picture. PLEASE TELL ME I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE GETTING PETER PAN VS. CAPTAIN HOOK VIBES FROM HIS HIDDEN TAUNTING.no subject
