Putting the final touches on the last Moritheil Review of 2009.
Drama! Drama for 2010! RT @GunGirlNewYork: @michaelpinto My advice to you for 2010: STOP BEING SUCH A FUCKING FAN BOY!
“Health is a universal concern, and no other title can provide the total wellness coverage that Black Jack can offer.” Haha. @Vertical_Ed
Now Spinning: Jack Johnson - ‘The News’
Is being given the wrong # a perfect defense against “you didn’t call” guilt trips?
Awesome. I just got a package that apparently has been waiting for me since November. :P
Need to head to a lunch meeting. Glad to see everyone’s opinions on writing :)
As an editor, I want to scream whenever someone tells me, “But it’s perfectly clear to me! You just don’t understand.” Yes. That’s my point.
Apparently people hate it when they want you to critique proposed rules for balance and you critique them for grammar and clarity.

RT @rayyhum777: @CirnoIsAGenius - radical fundamentalism should not have its place among the community…but they can speak all they want.
Heh. RT @rayyhum777: Who the fuck gave those people rights to determine who’s Otaku and who’s not? Are they 10000000% Japanese blood? XD
RT @debaoki: niiiice! a new Junko Mizuno print is available from Infectious! http://bit.ly/64faeN (great gift for your super-cool friends)
EDIT: John Edgar Wideman liked Blues, not R&B. I regret the error.
Reminds me of a story of a black kid who liked The Crystals said he liked R&B. A white kid told him “They’re not R&B” and he got mad.
Protip: don’t challenge the credibility of someone who had to correct you in the past. It makes you look forgetful.
RT @gendomike: The marriage of rap and moe. http://is.gd/5ziNw (HT @moritheil)
So, looking at the Anime Conji site, I’m again struck by how few starting con sites have a PRESS section.
