Well, isn't this a fun little project? ^_^ I'm applying my limited amounts of the french language and of japanese pronunciation to transcribe the lyrics to "wo qui non coin" from Cowboy Bebop. It's a sweet yet sad song, sung by the seiya doing Edward's voice, whose lyrics noone has been able to decipher yet. The interesting thing is that, unlike "Encore une verre", the french in this song is grammaticaly incorrect (kind of like it was translated by Babelfish). Anywho, I'm getting there :) Once I'm done I'll post the update on Anime Lyrics.

A pleasant surprise indeed! It appears that 7 Seconds of love are coming to the Netherlands! They'll be performing at the Winston Hotel in Amsterdam, on the 25th of March. I'm _so_ totally gonna be there! :3

Aw yea! I'm feeling the love for 7 Seconds of love!
I was introduced to this UK ska band by the Dragon page: winging it Podcast. Evo and Mike use parts of 7SoL's song "The first drink of the day" as a bumper and I've always found that to be an awesome track. Enticed by the goodness I visited their other site and downloaded their complete discography (which is available for free!). Well, the word "awesome" doesn't begin to describe it!
Combining good singing and great musicians with a good sense of humor has made for a collection of songs that I will _never_ delete from my play lists! It's a miracle, but their songs have even bumped my Cowboy Bebop favorites from my daily list of work tunes! Current play count for the whole CD (over two days): eight times ^_^
If you happen to be into ska/reggae/rock I sincerely suggest you go check them out. If you like their music, buy a shirt or two to support them. For one, I can't wait for my order to come in!

Phew! What a relief! I received a letter from Imagine Publishing yesterday telling me that their company has acquired the publishing rights for GamesTM, meaning that the mag is indeed not dead at all. Also, they inform me that they'll honor my subscription which is a good thing! I'm happy!
Not much time for a real update now, I'm sorry. Need to run now.
Oh, before I run: if anyone out there feels like playing a few rounds of Mario Kart:DS online I'm game! My friend code is 021540-378158. Just drop me an e-mail, or an IM to give me your friend code and we'll set up a time and date.

Hmm.... According to the Google Sitemaps various parts of my site are broken or unreachable (mostly PDF documents). I hadn't even noticed any problems. Please have a little patience. All will be fixed in a few days.

Today I received my copy of February's issue of ;Login: which contains the publication of my most recent article. The one about planning projects and your personal time. I love having stuff published. Once Anime Con 2006 is over and done with I'll probably write some more articles! Speaking of Anime Con, I'd better get to work before going to bed :p
