Dreamhost

This site is now hosted on a Dreamhost plan. You can get $97 off of your first year ($22 for the year!) if you enter my promocode CAEK. While I get none of that*, you save alot. Enjoy.
*It also makes the person who referred me $5.

Shakugan no Shana II - EP8

Finally the streak of filler and “fun” episodes ends. Until now the show has been about Yuji’s harem, Ike’s attempt to catch Yoshida’s attention, and school life. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy those episodes, but I like them spread out throughout the season, not 7 in a row.
This episode was a flashback [...]

Perl CRC32 Script

I wanted something to check my anime for validity on my desktop. I run Linux on it, and needed something that could do it all from the shell. I wanted to be able to check just 1 file (for when i grab a release), or I wanted to give it a directory, and [...]

Rozen Maiden

Rozen Maiden has been one of those animes that was in my “to watch” list for quite some time now. I really didn’t know all that much about it, save for the internet meme of “desu” originating from Suiseiseki.

Moar update?

Yar! I finally got around to customizing a theme. A good looking blog like this should keep me motivated to update moar. I want to write a big post on one of my favorite (so far) anime that is currently airing. Pretty much, Minori is amazing at writing storylines. More on [...]

New theme

I’m using the K2 wordpress theme now. It has some cool features and has a cool base look to it. I’ll customize it to give off more of a “me” feel to it when I get some time.
I’ve decided that I want to blog more. Its been awhile since my last post, [...]

Webhosting

I posted this to a forum I go to. Maybe one of my… few readers could be of some help:
After about 5 years of sharing a web hosting plan between myself and two friends, we are going to let the plan die. We are all going to different colleges in different areas now, and [...]

Upgraded

On WP 2.3 now. Not that anyone actually reads this…

Paluminum.net

http://paluminum.net/ - My site that this blog runs on got a complete recode today by me. I had been meaning to do it for awhile, and never got to it. It took all of 2 hours to write, and I am pleased with the result.
I wrote it in php (stuck [...]
