Yeah so I have seriously let this page back-slide into oblivion for about 8 months now and I'm sorry. Life has been hectic but also very rewarding. Zombie Death Stench just hot signed to Redrum records and I have been busy getting the album done. Its weird how at times everything you want happens all at once. Pleasant Valley Aerospace is languishing in limbo for the time being unitl Chris and I can get our lives in order.

Drathon continues to thrive in Vana'Diel and is now married to his/my best in game friend Chiapet ( <3 ). I will try to update his page one of these days with pictures of their wedding and of his beautiful wife. Other than that I've been watching the new season of Doctor Who and the last episode "Family of Blood" is one of the best episodes of Who I have seen ever.

I also got the new Queens of the Stone Age a week early today and I'm enjoying what I hear already.

I have something I need to tell you. . . You have to go out and buy the game Okami for the PS2. It is the best game you might not play this year. I haven't been this psyched about a new game (not an established franchise like FF) in years. The game play is great (think a little bit of new school Zelda mixed with innovative magic) and the story is rich and rewarding. I promise you if you buy this game and give it the chance it deserves you will love it. With that said I believe I have earned 'Ammy' at least +50 faith!

October 2005 has arrived and despite our best efforts those pesky Halloween Daemons have once again infested our servers. They immediately changed the decorum to one more to their liking. This lead to the inevitable phone call to our local Internet clergyman. After talking to his secretary we found he is booked solid with server exorcisms until early November. The worst part is the Rotten Brains (those crazy loons who's site we host over at the Escalon Halloween Project) swore that their new "fire"wall would keep them out. Oh well, it is not like we didn't see this coming.

Sadly enough things aren't looking to great for this years Halloween project. Jason will be off busy doing the Legion's show that night and Jamie isn't honestly sure if he wants to go it alone. If anyone from past years would like to return and give a full commitment to the project (just for the night of Tuesday October 31st) this would help lessen the work load. Jason and Jamie both hope the Project will get the support it needs to continue for this its fifth anniversary.

Yes much of my free time has been swallowed whole by a little thing called Final Fantasy XI. I have dug into the Fairy server and have made many wonderful friends (Chiapet, Mortemer, Auroranoir, Windexx, and Alyster to name a few! ^^). If you need me I'll be defending Windurst and helping my friends face the ever growing threat to Vana'diel!

Well now that Kingdom Hearts II is finished I've gone and dove head first into Final Fantasy XI. Chances are good that no one will see me again until my Black Mage is level 60. Having said that I'd like to point you at something else on the horizon that I'm looking forward to. Final Fantasy III for the DS has actually gotten its very own web site. This had been the one game that I've been waiting ages to see released stateside. It's one of my top three favorite from the series and once it's out you'll see why. All in all this has been a great year game wise (which helps me cope with the fact that my life sucks).

Also I've been watching the new Doctor Who season 2 as it airs on the BBC. This season thus far (The Girl in the Fireplace begin the most recent) has continued to amaze me as much as the last one did. David Tennant feels more like the Doctor to me than Christopher Eccleston ever did. He's climbing his way up in my favorite Doctor list and is quite close to knocking Tom Baker from his number 3 spot (and if you care my top three favorite Doctors are 1) Patrick Troughton 2) Peter Davidson 3)Tom Baker). I just hope the upcoming Cybermen story will do justice to my favorite Who baddies.

Due to the 67 hours I've put into playing (and finishing) Kingdom Hearts 2 we've kinda let things slide around here. Anyway ZDS is still working on their album and they hope to have it finished in the next couple of weeks.

The limited edition volume 1 of the new Hellsing OVA has made it's way across the Pacific and into my waiting arms. Then on the very same day I got my hands on a subtitle file from BakaFish and the Birds of Hermes. I then reburned it and watched it in all it's glory! Other than a couple of tiny differences it followed the manga faithfully. I also happened to get ahold of Hellsing: The Dawn Chapter 6 and was highly amused by Rip getting knocked out by Alucard's coffin.

Also a long time desire of mine had been fulfilled by VIZ this month with the release of Golgo 13. It appears this is the first volume of a set of 13 featuring stories chosen by Takao Saito. It has a mature reader rating so hopefully it will not be censored in any way.
