   *Gurk*
Hey everybody. How's it going?

I was really hoping to go on a manga run with Josh today (especially since we couldn't go last weekend), but it looks like I won't be able to. I woke up feeling REALLY sick this morning, and I doubt I'll be able to go.
My throat's still sore as all Hell & fire, and my nose is clogged worse then Louie Anderson's arteries. I just generally feel like crap today, so I doubt I'd be able to enjoy a manga run. Plus, I wouldn't want Josh to catch whatever I have.
-_-' Man, this sucks.

Ah well, nothin' I can do about it. Besides, my parents are going out tonight, so I'd have to come home from the manga run early anyway.

Any who, on to the fun stuff:
When you guys were in 4th or 5th grade, did you ever go through that fun period of book and author jokes? I sure did! And I still enjoy those!
If you're not sure what I'm talking about, I'll give you some examples. This was the absolute most popular one at my old school when I was 10:

"Under the Bleachers", by Seymour Buttz

XD You get what I'm talking about? Here are some more I remember from back then. I wonder if any of these are names of ACTUAL books:

"The 100 yd. Dash to the Bathroom", by Willie Makit and Betty Wont
"Rusty Bed-Springs", by I.P. Freelee
"Head and Shoulders", by Dan Druff
"The Spot on the Wall", a collection of traditional Japanese Haikus by Hu Flung Dung
"Black Mail", by Al Killya
"I Survived a Tiger Attack", by Claud Ballz
"The Big Book of Come-backs", by Joe Mamma

A lot of times it can be just a funny sounding name and doesn't have to be coupled with a book title. Ya' know, like when Bart calls into Moe's bar on the Simpson's? X) Of course, these are usually pretty dirty...

Heywood Jablomy,
Oliver Closeoff,
Hugh Jass,
Homer Seckshual,
Harry Johnson, etc. XD

Are there any I forgot to list? These can be pretty funny.

Anyway, here's the pic for today:


Awwwwwww, that's so sweet.
This is from the Kenshin manga, or is it? Maybe it's from a dream-sequence in the manga. Could it be a piece of concept art? Or a fan-work? I'm not gonna' tell! :P I don't give spoilers, so I'm not gonna' give it away! You'll have to read the manga for yourself to find out! Ha ha! b~_'

Thanks for your time, guys, and I'll see you tomorrow.
(And please pray that I'll feel a bit better by then! >_<)
Ooh! And don’t forget to watch the premiere of Naruto tonight on Toonami! Let’s just hope that this epic series will redeem Toonami for the mistakes they’ve made since March!
And after that, make sure to watch the premiere of the movie “The Legend of Escaflowne”, tonight at midnight on Adult Swim! ^o^
