I´m sorry. Haven´t blogged in a while. I´ve just been out of ideas, that´s why I thought that I just should start writing and see what it´s gonna be like ^^.

Today I´ve seen the movie Braveheart. Really nice movie, and nice music. The main theme was one of my favs from the album The Celtic Circle 1 ^^.

About the teamblogg, who is really intrested to post on it? We should make sure that we got 2 bloggs in a week together it think. And what should it be called? And does everyone want it in english? Please tell in a comment ^^.

Not a long post. Sorry.

More boring RO talking

2005-06-13T03:41:00.000+02:00

Yea, I know. You are prolly sick about this game. You prolly doesn´t care if I play the game, but blogging about it.. That´s just too much =0.

Well, tired now. But I wanted to write something. So, please, don´t get angry if this post is totaly messed up =P.

Today I got one of my better ideas. Some time ago, when I was exploring a town called Alberta in RO, I found a NPC (non playing character) selling yellopies, a normal loot from an enemy. Today I found another NPC selling Poring Dolls. Also, another NPC making Poring Hats from 300 Yellopy and 1 Poring Doll. Most people doesn´t now about these two NPC, and I started my Poring Doll business ^^;. As most people hunts poring to get both the yellopies, and the poring doll (with a droprate like 0.1%) those sells for 20 000 zeny (or 20k). However, 1 Yellopy is 6 zeny, that makes 1800 zeny for one hat. The dolls are for 1800 zeny too ^^. First I made three hats, and started vending them for 20k each. In 10 minutes they were all gone ^^. Then I made 20 Hats, and vending them for 13 600 zeny, and earning 10k for every Hat and still be 7 000 zeny lower than the others ^^. That worked great until they started selling it for 5k.. T_T.
Well, I sold more than 60 Hats anyways ^^;.

EDIT: Iki got it right. A teamblogg is a blogg were many people can post. At least it would be an effective way to keep a blogg active, methinks.

Goodnight everyone..

Embarrassing Moments

2005-06-11T19:39:00.000+02:00

Hi ^^

I wonder, if I am alone with this problem. Whenever I do something embarrasing, maybe the nearbys won´t even noctice, I´ll still feel shame years after. When I think back at the moment. This is so silly, because I still remeber thing like three years ago. Do anyone else have this kind of "problem?". Mewonders.
A pretty strange related thingie about myself is that, whenever I´m reading a book/watching a movie/whatever and the mainguy/anyone else does something embarrasing, like messing things up, missunderstand things and other things. I stop reading the book/stops watching the movie until the moment is gone. Am I alone with things like this too?

This may seem like just a big mess of humbug, but please comment about your opinion, kudosai.. ^.^

(Yes, I´ve prolly got at least one embarrasing moment with each of you regular commenters..)

Long ago, I started thinking about making this a team blogg, or make a new. A blogg where I would like Zeedox, Iki/Milky, Amion, Homeless_Assassin and FanfictionDreamer. It could actually be fun ^^. What do you all think?

Well, I´ve got a little Swordie to level now ^^

Hello ^^

Today, I´ve spent most of my time after school vending things at RO. It´s really funny ^^. Some noob sold Skeleton Cards (worth 70-100k) for 10k. Bought 3 of them, sold all for 60k. I´ve also argued with many people about prices, and such.

Well, empty mind today. Sorry.

Pixels!

2005-06-05T16:59:00.000+02:00

Yo!

Hmm.. I didn´t plan to write any bloggs today, but since this day have been so überboring (at least since the server went down =P). The day have been boring because:

The server is down
Nothing happens in this town today
No one is online at MSN
I´m freaking tired
Most of my fav music seems to be unlistenable
My d/led version of Braveheart isn´t subtitled, and I can´t understand the scottish language

So, I´m going to write a blogg! Yay for bloggs!

Why is the whole gamingculture now so focused on graphics? People hates games that is just a tiny bit unreal. Like Zelda Wind Waker. The game has its own cartoonish style, which is kinda cool. The game is really good, and has LOGICAL puzzles and things, that other games haven´t. But, just because of the graphic, the mainstream thinks that it´s too childish.
And not to mention our dear pixles. The longlost 2D games.
Hell, most of the really good games are in 2D. Like Final Fantasy III/VI for SNES, and Chrono Trigger, same console. The king of fighting games (IMHO), the Guilty Gear series. Super Mario World, after Super Mario 64, it´s the best platform game there are.
The whole Castlevania series are in 2D (with 2 exceptions that both sucks).
There are also many other great 2D RPGs, like Breath of Fire and Soul Blazer that also rocks.
Hmm.. The characters in RO is also made of nice little pixels ^^;.

Well, take this post as a tip, and download an emulator like ZSNES and the games here, and have fun ^^

Caffein Effects

2005-05-22T14:15:00.000+02:00

Welcome readers ^^.

Woot. I didn´t understand the effects of caffeine before yesterday. Lol.. Before the LAN,
I bought, let´s see, 2 litre Pepsi Max. The lan went on, I drank something like 1,2 litres before midnight. Didn´t feel any sleepiness at all, just some boredom because when I ranthe DC hubb I couldn´t play anything. When the lan ended at 12 o´clock Saturday, I felt a bad headache. I wasn´t surprised really. I hadn´t slept. and drinking coke doesn´t give you any water, at least it doesn´t stay in your body. So I swallowed an Alvedon (love alvedon!) and drank some water. I wasn´t tired at all. But the headache didn´t wear of. At 3 pm I watched some anime and after some episodes I started to read a book. About 2 pages later I fell asleep. I woke up when my pops and my sister went to the city core (like that word.. city core) and watched more episodes. Though, I was really sleepy. At nine PM my sister dragged me down and made me watch the horrible Eurovision Song Contest. Moldava was the funnies (with the granny and the drum). I escaped soon to watch more anime, and to sleep. This morning, my pops had a hard time to wake me up. I don´t know which demon they contacted to make it. It used water anyway.. So, at 1 PM dad and I went to bicycle a bit. And now the sleepiness has gone.
I thought some about caffeine now. Maybe it works this way: When you drink caffeine drinks you build up a defence-wall against sleepiness. More caffeine will make the wall stronger. Though the evil sleepiness attacks the wall the whole time, slowly tearing it apart. And when the wall is down, all the stored-up sleepiness attacks in one huge wave.

I mentioned that I watched anime the whole day yesterday. I watched BECK. Homeless_Assassin (with a modem) made me d/l the whole anime, so I tried it out. Nice! The music they play is pretty nice too (I like the OP "I was made to hit in America" a lot). I still have a hard time getting used to the art style (especially the way they makes heads) but other than that it´s nice. Oh, I just realized that I felt the same way about the totally gigantic eyes in Kanon...
I also watched Tsubasa Chronicle (episod 5). I like the series, but the manga is better. But Mokona performs live with voice in the anime! GANBATTE MOKONA! A tips to everyone, d/l ep 5 and watch the scene with Mokona 10 minutes after the beginning of the ep.

This is "Letter to Dana" by Sonata Arctica (a metal band). I do really like this lyric.

Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you.
Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
And I don't want to bother You anymore,
I used to hope you'd come back
But not anymore Dana.

My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
Dana, my darling, would be so bad.

Dana my darling I'm writing to you
Cause your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore
Your mother wished: Come visit your fathers grave, Dana

Your father disowned you because you have sinned
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
And I hope you won't do those things anymore
Dana My darling I'm waiting for

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway

No, you can't surprise me anymore
No, I've seen it all before
But it seems I cannot let you go
Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana

And I think that I told you, I'd wait for you forever
Now I know someone else's holding you,
so, for the first time in my life - I must lie
Lie's a sin, mess that I am in,
Love is not the thing I feel know
I promise you: I won't write again 'til the sun sets
behind your grave

Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you
I heard you passed away, it was a beautiful day
I'm old and I feel time will come for me
My diary's pages are full of thee

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway

That was all for today ^^.

Ragnarok Online

2005-05-17T22:00:00.000+02:00

Konnichiwa...

This can´t be good for me. I´ve got addicted to Ragnarok Online. Why? Despite all other MMORPGs, this one has a really nice atmosphere. Everyone is nice against each other (maybe because most of the game ain´t PvP?), and the pros helps the noobs. If you ask politely someone gladly heals you, and if you have problems fighting the mobs, people may help you. I´m am a AGI-Thief (a thief based on making him fast enough to avoid the enemies attack rather than be able to survive many attacks) at base level 41 and job level 31. Thought, everything aint happy in the game.. I´ve bought an Poporin egg cheap, and made it hatch. But due to the server rollbacks, he has dissapered. I´ve also joined the guild "The musicans". Nice guys ^^. If you wanna play, I´ve got a link in the linkbar to the right.

Yeah, I do also need music-tips. I´ve got a lack of good music lately. Comment about some..

I do also wonder who "the one who forgets to tell who he/she is" is. Please tell.

Konnichiwa!! ^^

Sorry, I didn´t blogg yesterday. Kinda forgot it, until Milky/Iki reminded me. Thought, I was tired, and didn´t blogg. But here´s one for today instead.

Hmm.. The house is starting to look funny ^^;. They are installing district heating (fjärrvärme) now. So, all my things are placed in one half of the room. The workers are using the rest. Now, I am sitting in my bed, with my keyboard in my knee and driking cold Oboy. The screen is on a small table in front of me. To my right, I´ve got my comp. I´m also listening to som NGE music on my iPod. Feels pretty nice ^^;

When I walked home, this Monday, I was listening to Get Over - Kira from the anime Hikaru no Go it reminded me of the game Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon. I don´t know how I did connect Hikaru no Go with that strange thing, ^^;. Well, the game is "starring" the bluehaired guy named Goemon, and a fatty with a hammer, a longhaired girl with a katana, a ninja robot with dubble kunais. Does it sound strange? Well, it really is. A friend of mine had got it for the Nintendo 64, and I borrowed it from him. The game is a platform game, with inspiration from The Legend of Zelda OoT. Like, the health bar is in hearts, collect four thingies and get another heart. And you can find a map and a compass (showing where the boss is) in every dungeon (mostly temples thought). The game is very japanese, and it´s kinda strange that it was released in Europe (not in the US). The game had many glitches and stuff that Konami haven´t fixed. Check out this guide to most of the glitches. I´ve tested many of them myself. The most funny in the games, was the robot battles, or mecha battles. You used combos that was only in the instruction book, and battled other cool robots/mechas. The game was pretty strange, but fun ^^.

My Mokona fandom is pretty wellknown by some, but now I am really obsessed with the white manju bun. Why? Tsubasa Chronicle!! Everybody knows that I like Clamp mangas, I´ve read pretty much all of the english translated Clamp mangas there are, and watched CardCaptor Sakura. Now, I´ve d/led ep 1-4 in Tsubasa. I really recommend everyone to watch it (maybe you should read some Clamp mangas first, thought).

I´ll blogg again tomorrow (prolly), I´ve already got a topic (but that´s a secret ^^;).
Stay alive (and commenting)

Codes (Real One)

2005-05-03T20:08:00.000+02:00

Welcome, dear friends ^^.

Today, I´ll talk some about The da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. And, some other things I´ve got on my mind...

Lately there havn´t been many "new" books (books that I havn´t read before, I´ve prolly read my fav books more than 5 times..) I´ve really liked. This one have made me forget to sleep, which ain´t good for me. Nearly overslept both today and yesterday.. Why is the book that intresting? Well, Brown is skilled in keeping the reader hooked, the ways they solve the codes is also really nice ^^. But, Brown makes everything he sounds like the real truth, which is kind of confusing. In a fantasy book you always know this aren´t real, but Brown mixes the truth and the fantasies to good, that you aren´t sure what the truth really is.. I do really wonder if Brown belives that Jesus had a wife (Maria Magdalena), and that she is the Graal.. Well, at least the book is really good.. I really like the eerie way Jacques Sauniére prepare his clues to the key to the safe..

Codes

2005-05-01T11:19:00.000+02:00

Welcome my friends, to my blogg today ^^

I know, I haven´t blogged in a while, but I´ve got a reason, so keep quiet.

I finished my review on Baiten Kaitos yesterday, I think it came out pretty nice. For all you soulless, Baiten Kaitos is a RPG to the GameCube. The GC haven´t got many RPGs, but there are some, which is really good. I mean, Skies of Arcadia Legends (was originally for the Dream Cast) had a pretty nice story, good music, a nice fighting-system (though it uses Random-Encounter) the only problem is that the game isn´t GC Exclusive. The cube have also got Tales of Symphonia, I haven´t played it myself, but the game magazines likes it. And, Golden Sun 3 will probably be for the cube too. There are surely some more RPGs too, I think.

Baiten Kaitos though, ain´t really good. Well, it is pretty funny, but that is mostly because of the funny fightingsystem. The story seems ripped from any RPG there are. A young, pretty greedy bluehaired guy seeks revenge on Glacamolo (dunno how it´s spelled), a general in the Empire. Yeah, an evil Empire. Original? Well, he accidentally falls down in a forest while he is flying (yeah, the world is just floating islands, and some people in this world have got wings. Humm.. Floating Islands? Skies of Arcadia? >.<) but he is saved by a strange creature called Meemai. Well, after he finds himself hospitalised in a small village, he explores the forest. There he finds a girl in trouble. Her to protectors/friends have both fallen, and she stands alone against a big monster. Until Kalas (the guy is named that) jumps in. Hmm.. the dialogs sucks, and the voices are even worse (I turned them of pretty fast..). The only really enjoying in the game is the fights. You fights with Magnus-cards, which contains weapons like swords and knives, spells and other things. There are many ways to combine cards to make greater attacks, and you have to think about the Elements. Water against Fire, Dark against Light, and Time against Wind. If you use both Dark and Light in a attack, the effect will be really low, and the same with the others. But if the enemy is fire-based, water attacks are really good. The fighting is also very based on timing, use the defense-magnus some second before the attack, and so on. The game doesn´t use Random-Encounters, the enemies are walking around on the screen, and you are able to avoid them.

Zelda Hype

2005-04-27T06:57:00.000+02:00

Moshi moshi ^^

Have you heard about the Legend of Zelda 2005? Well, now E3 is coming, and some magazines have already got their hands on the game. My fav Zelda site, Zelda Universe have got some scans, and summaries from the text. The coolest thing I saw, was this magazine cover, the man behind Link seems to be a baddie. And Nintendo have told us that Ganon/Ganondorf will have a part in the game. So, this could either be Ganon or Agahnim (baddie from Alttp) if the cloaked really are a baddie. But, it could also be Link's sidekick (Nintendo have talked about that before). Also, notice that Sheikah eye on the back of the cloak. This, is intresting. Agahnim's symbol is a slightly changed Sheikah eye. In Forsaken Fortress before Ganondorf's room, there is this eye. Sheik from OoT wore this symbol on the chest. This could mean that Zelda is back as a Sheikah in disguise like she was in OoT. That could be true, since Zelda seems to be able to fight herself, at least she got a sword here.

Ahh.. I love hype ^^. Well, E3 is soon, can´t wait ^^

Can´t blog in a while, I think. I´ve got a deadline to 29th April on Baiten Kaitos.. It´s hard to be a game critics..

Yo!

Humm.. My life is really focused around music now (and a certain goddess ^_~). Lately, some of my blog topics contains something about music. Like LONELY ROLLING STAR (trackname from the album Katamari Damacy) or Fallen - Evanescence. I really like music. Some of them are really good mood-boosters (newly invented word by Sartas). Like, if I am full of loneliness based on that my goddes aren´t here I usually listens to something like Wish You Were Here (which make me more full of loneliness) or Ghost of a Rose (makes me a little sad, but also filled with a romantic feelings) or maybe All Because of You (Romantic feeling). All of those are by Blackmore's Night. When I am more gloomy, and sad, Hinata vs. Neji (To feed the sad feeling)((from Naruto)). Or I can use a happy tune, like Catch You Catch Me (from CCS). Or, something by Evanescence, like Going Under and Haunted. Those boost my anger, and saddness. Other than that, Nightwish can also be used to many moods.

Cant write longer, sorry.

Moshi moshi, readers out there!

I´ve got a bad headache today.. but that´s really not a problem! Here´s today´s blogg!

Today I feel rather genki, much because the music I´ve been listening too. I started my Highest Rating playlist on the pod some hour ago, now it´s playing Naruto Main Theme. The Portas is really nice. They have this bas problem, but with Bas Reducer it´s pretty clear and nice ^^

I wonder if I am the only one who dreams to much? Like, you know.. When I was eleven I waited for the Hogwarts invitation to arrive, and lately I´ve been hoping to discover that I, like Otori Takeo, has an incredible hearing from my father or mother who is secretly associated with the Kikuta clan.

Yo!

Maybe you wonder what my nick Sartas means. Well, some folks have asked me about it. It all started when I were reading a book by Tracy Hickman (something), it was named something like the Death Gate... Anyway, there was a chartcher which race was called Sartans. I thougt the name Sartan was cool, so I started using it as a nick (mostly in MSN). My only problem with the nick was some people thought I was somekinda Satanist T_T... The I started using Sartas.
I think it´s really nice ^^.

Enought about that, have you ever read Momo by Michael Endé? It´s really good, at the first look it´s seems to be a children book, but it´s rather philosophical . It´s about a little girl named Momo, some villagers find her in a local (amfiteater). They find out that she´ve got a talent, she is really good at listening. She´s also kind and understanding. But the city she lives in have gone quite strange. Grey men are visiting people, and is convincing them to start saving time.
The citizens doesn´ t remeber the Grey, but they starts to stress. They forgets their children, wives and friends, is always unhappy... Momo is observating, and understands that she´s the only one who can save the city.

This year, I´ve performed a theater based on this book togheter with my excellent theater-group. I was one of the greys ^^.

I´ve got some more stuff to tell about Momo, but that will be next time
I think.

I recently got my Porta Pro's from Dustin.se, awesome bas.. Awesome, but a little too much. If you wanna feel real bas, try out Over the Hills and Far Away med Bas Booster EQ in iTunes :P. With Bas Reducer they are really good.

My latest fav track is "The Fall of Roses SANCTUS" from Angel Sanctuary OST. The manga is really awesome..

Stay alive!

I´m in a kinda Chobits obsession now.. I´ve read all the Chobit´s I´ve got (to chapter 44 in the swedish magazine Manga Mania). I´m also watching the anime, and now, I´ve styled my PC in a Chobits theme..

Me and Games

2005-04-10T19:28:00.000+02:00

Greetings soulless, mortals & my goddess.

I said I would write about my gaming experiences. Enjoy.

Well, the very first time I played video games was at my friend Sweson's house. He had borrowed a Nintendo 64. It was blue and transparent. The games were so cool! He had The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. That game may have been the the game that really made my love games.. I was in the third or second year when I bought a Game Boy Pocket. Transparent. I also bought The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening. Awesome game. Sadly a friend who borrowed the game lost it.. A friend of mine who have moved to another city had a Playstation and a huge amount of pirate-games to the consol. The ones I liked the most was Tekken 3 and Soul Blade. (It´s quite funny that when I bought Soul Calibur II I recognized the fighters from the Soul Blade ^^) Soemtime after that I bought a white Game Boy Advance toghether with Zelda Oracle of Seasons. Funny game, but not quite the right Zelda feeling.. Well, I´ve also played throught Golden Sun and Golden Sun The Lost Age.. Good RPGs. After that I bought a N64, and Zelda Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask. I love those games! It´s probably those who learned me the most english of all my games. Banjo Tooie was also loads of fun. The next year I bought me a Cube. And Wind Waker of course ^^. Soul Calibur II and Skies of Arcadia Legends too. I never finished Skies of.. I also got the four in one zelda pak from Club Nintendo. That was my reason to sell both the GBA and the N64 which made me able to buy a iPod Mini.

Well, this ain´t all of my games, only those I really liked. And I´ve played a whole bunce of Snes roms. My fav is Final Fantasy VI. Great game..

This was all, mortals, soulless & goddess.

Adaware? Huh?

2005-04-09T21:08:00.000+02:00

Welcome mortals, soulless and goddes. Take a seat.

Short post today, too little time, I think.

When I was ID3 tagging some files, my firewall Zone Alarm Pro asked me if an application named Xhrmy.exe would have access to internet. I chose Deny, later my spyware/adware software SpyBot asked if Xhrmy.exe would chance some in the registry so the application would auto-start when Windows was booted. Deny chance, later on I deleted the file. Pretty lame adware.. ^^'

Xhrmy - Xhrmy.exe - Process Information
Process File: Xhrmy or Xhrmy.exe
Process Name: Xhrmy.exe Adware

Description:
Xhrmy.exe is a process associated with an adware application. It automatically downloads advertisments from an online location and displays them on your desktop. This process should be removed to protect your personal privacy.

In my next blogg I will write about my gaming experiences...

Welcome, soulless and mortals. (And the goddes, you know who you are ^_~)

Gaou-ish day today, mortals & soulless..

Gaou-ish or not, today I´ve moved all the pics to my Telia FTP server, instead of my Silentwhisper account. Feels somewhat safer.. I´ve also edited the "Empty mind" post, so instead of a link the beutiful Go picture is shown on the site. I may edit the "Gome Gome ^^'" too, insert the image instead of the link about Piro's cool - uncool style.

Since Friday last week the pageload counter have been counting, well, pageloads. Check it in the I power bar. 100+ pageloads, congrats Sartas! Some of them are mine thought.. Here's the stats:

Since friday, I´ve got a total of 115 pageloads, 33 unique visitors, 13 first time visitors and 20 returning visitors. Ganbatte Sartas!

Well, now to an anime tip!
I may have mentioned it earlier, but wth?
Air

The anime is made from a Dating Sim only released in Japan (the anime as well, but you´ve always got fansubb ^^. Check out Triad @ a.scarywater.net). In the anime you follow the character Kunisaki Yukito, when he travels to a town were he meets some girls. Like Kamio Misuzi, the character I´ve got my Gaoouu habit from. Kirishima Kano, a girl with another personality. And many others. Lately, in the two latest EPs I´ve seen (Ep 8 & 9) the anime shows another scenario. The text beneth is from the Anime blogg Cinnamon Ass.

Kanna (winged girl) has Ryuuya (bloke) as a guardian, with Uraha (giggling one) as a friend in the palace where she lives. They explain the concept of family to the poor girl, who has been imprisoned all her life. She's been dreaming about her mother (remember, children, FLIGHT AND MOTHERS), so Ryuuya has a little chat about mothers and so on, but their happiness is short-lived as Kanna is to be moved on to another shrine - so Ryuuya and Uraha conspire together to "kidnap" Kanna and go in search of her mum. A road trip ensues, with angst about FLIGHT AND MOTHERS along the way alongside some fairly light hearted fun, until they finally reach Kanna's mother.

The text is not mine, it´s BluWacky's at Cinnamon Ass. Here are some screenshots from these two episodes:

Well, that was all, I guess. I´m not sure if I can blogg tomorrow too, but if I find the time, I will.

Well then, stay alive mortals, soulless and you, my goddess.

2005-04-07T16:26:00.000+02:00

"You are smart!"

Yo mortals!

Today, I´ve got some things on my mind. Enjoy!

First, I want to tell that Katamari Fortissimo Damacy is one of the best music albums you can find out there. Download it through this (109 mb) bittorrent file (you need a bittorrent application like Azureus). The music is from the game Katamari Damacy which is only released in Japan.. T_T Anyways, I can still enjoy the music ^^.

I will order a pair of Koss Porta Pro to use together with my iPod Mini. Those white one who you get together with the pod is horrible.. No bass at all.. Bad Apple! The only problem with the Portas is that they leak maybe a little too much. That´s bad, but I don´t want in-ear plugs (they wouldn´t leak at all..), so I have to stick with it.

Have you heard anything about the All Your Base cult? If you do not, you are not even worthy the name mortal, then you are soulless. Soulless, I tell you!
Well, as you may know, I am a missionary to the real l337 religon. So listen up, soulless ones!

In 1989 Zero Wing came out for the Sega Genesis (by Toaplan =P). The only difference between this and all the other side-scrolling shooters that flooded the videogame world was the horrible way it threathened the English language. Here´s the most famous conversation they had:

In A.D 2101
War was beginning
Captain: What happend?
Mechanic: Someone set us up the bomb.
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What!
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It´s you!!
Cats: How are you gentlemen!
Cats: All your base are belong to us.
Cats: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say!
Cats: You have no chans to survive make your time.
Cats: Ha ha ha ha ....
?: Move every zig/Take every zig.
Captain: All for great justice.

For more information about AYB, check out these pages:

all yor base r blong 2 us - the original that started it all.
All Your Base Are Belong To Us! - New-grounds about the AYB phenomena.
TmsT's Zero Wing Rhapsody - Really funny remake that´s animated in anime style where the crew and Cats sings the whole dialog to a famous song by Queens.

Enough about that, soulless & mortals.

To my english teacher: I´ve downloaded Bob Hund, and I wonder how anyone could like the thing they call music. Plain glibberish in Skånska by some +50 fellows..

Anyways! Be sure to download the Katamari soundtrack, and when you are at it search for Green Day's American Idiot. Not as good as Katamari, but pretty nice.

The link shows a page with the whole Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and that´ve got copyright. Even when you have´nt got a clue what the link points at. Pretty strange law..

Konnichiwa, mortals!

I am really sorry, yesterday I had to finish a short text to the swedish teacher and I didn´t get the time to write an entry.

Some days ago I found Anti-Pirat Byrån's webpage hacked by AUH (Angry, young hackers, or "Arga Unga Hackare"), who had also published some of AP's mail. *evilgrin*

Some days ago, also, did I finally finish the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, for my second time ^^'. I really like that book (and influenced a little on the text I wrote to my swedish teacher).

And right now, I am downloading the whole Chobits anime. Yay! Go Clamp! I just finished downloading Blackmore Night's latest album Beyond the Sunset - The Romantic Collection. Nice ^^.

Today was overall funny, I practiced organ at the church. It seems so hard to controll three sets of tangents plus the ones for the feets.. Hopefully I will master it.

That´s all for today, my mind is pretty empty right now.

Hello mortals.

Today, I´ve got plenty of time, but lack something to write about. Well, something I´ve got.

Today I remebered the anime Hikaru no Go, and feelt such a nostalagi. I still love that anime. And I still wants to play Go. Well, first I need a opponent, then I can play. Iwas trying some screenshot application today, snapped this:

Isn´t it so inspiring? Anyone who looks at this picture would be intrested in Go, and Japanese autumn... If you wanna check out the Anime, ftp.hikago.flirble.org/pub have got all EPs and some Music and other things too. The site is sometimes down. You could use Filezilla to download them fast.

I´ve got 50 megabyte webspace from my former Modem-provider Telia, but I´m to lazy to dig out the password to the FTP. And to me it´s enough with Silentwhispers 4 megabytes.

Tomorrow ends the holidays.. Gaouuu... And we got maths.. Anyways, it´ll be nice to meet the classmates again. I suppose. (I have to think positive, y´know. ^^)

Recently I found this fanfic, "Gold and Silver, Fire and Ice" at Fanfiction.net. And I recommend it strongly.

Well, short post today. I´ve been away today, and have a little time over before going to a party. No, not the funny one. My pop's friend is is 50 years this year. It´s going to be plain boring-to-death.

Well, seems like I´ve lost my former friend Zeedox to the dark side. (For details, check Zeed's comment on the last post). Poor Zeed.

It´s strange, yesterday I only found one april-joke.. My fav sites Megatokyo, Zelda Universe nor Golden Sun Realm had any jokes.. The only joke I found was a super iPod Mini, 200 gb, colorscreen, bluetooth.. One can always dream .^^

I hate my computer screen.. It´s so old, it can´t make 1024 x 768. That means I have to stick with 800 x 600. And that means I can´t read Mangas on the screen. Gaou.. T_T

Have you seen the cool MegaTokyo Flapdoozy Bag? I want one! Now!.. Like I said before, one can always dream.. ^_______^

Hello hello, mortals!

Sorry I couldn't post yesterday, Brotherhood meeting. Well, here's my post for today! ^^

On my latest post my friend Zeedox commented about that it´s unlegal to download thing here in Sweden. Well, that´s wrong. The current law gives the buyer of for example a CD the right to make copies, to share with friends. The problem for the law is that they can´t tell who my friend is. I mean, if I upload a ripped CD on The Pirate Bay, I can say that only my friends downloaded it. The same works when you download something yourself, you can say that I downloaded it from a friend. But if you make money on doing things like that, you are in trouble.
Here´s the reply I wrote in the comment list to the last post.

Zeed just said that we did unlegal stuff. Zeedox, the law doesn't apply before June/July the first. The one that Anti-Pirats tried to jail were the one who uploaded the stuff, and that's unlegal. But Anti-Pirats were using unlegal methods, like collect IPs and others. Just recently some uploaders didn't get any punishment in a trial because the only evidence was their IP, which Anti-P had collect unlegally.

When I came home today, I checked MegaTokyo, and found a nice new comic. I love MT! A friend to me thinks the comic sucks now that Largo (Rodney Caston) aren't involved in the comic (his alter ego in the comic is still there, thought). But basically, the things I like about MT isn´t the jokes (yeah, they can be fun too...) it´s Fred Gallagher's (Piro's) art and his storytelling. Anyway, look at this pic. Couldn´t Piro look like this always? ^^ And when you are at it, Fred, give Piro his iPod too. ^^

Yeah, about iPods. Maybe I said this before, but I´ve got a little cutie myself. A iPod Mini 2nd Generation, 6 gigabytes and the engravement "SarPod - Why suffer in Silence?" Afterwards, I don´t really like that text.. Because I´m much more happier nowdays.

Now MSN Messenger troubles me.. Gaoouu!! Can´t login.. Damn that Microsoft and that Bill Gate$.. Never trust those...

I meantioned the Brotherhood earlier, didn´t I? Me and my two friends Amion and Rigio are the Brotherhood of the Moon. ^^ We plan to rule/destroy the world someday. Well, not by now at least ^^. Yesterday we watched some Anime and played some Gamecube at my house. Always funny to meet those two.

That´s all for today.

Behold mortals, sleepy Sarr here..

Today I´ve wrote some at Amion's site (still in Swedish =P), and been chatting with some people.. Still easter holidays ^^.

Yesterday I watched End of Evangelion part One.. I still thinks the original endings very better and nicer. Especially the beging were Shinji are enjoying himself over Asukas unconscious body were disgusting (Of course, you didn't see him doing it, you heard Shinji moaning and then see a white liquid on his hand). Then the way the Eva series kills Asuka, by eating the Evas organs nearly made me vomit.. Well, surely the original ones were the best.

Here in sweden, the topic about filesharing is really hot. the Anti-Pirat organisation have made themself a bad name by breaking the privacy-laws, checking up IPs and such, and recivied a huge amount of reports. Hope they´ll get really sued!

Right now I am really intrested in a iBook, look at these specs. ^^

1.33GHz PowerPC G4
512K L2 cache @ 1.33GHz
14-inch TFT Display
1024x768 resolution
256MB DDR266 SDRAM
60GB Ultra ATA drive
SuperDrive
ATI Mobility Radeon 9200
32MB DDR video memory
AirPort Extreme built-in

It would go very well together with my iPod Mini too ^^.
Well, can someone lend me $ 1499? Anyone? ^^

2005-03-28T23:26:00.000+02:00

Hello, mortals!
Here I am again, sadly enough.

Well, I would like to post some about the "Hitch Hiker's guide to the Galaxy" (I will call it "the Guide" from here on) a book by Douglas Adams.

To those who do not know, the Guide provides the answer of the Universe, the life and everything. The answer were provided by the computer Deep Thought.

It does also tell us that the Earth is just a big computer, a computer mightier than Deep Thought and we, the humans and all the other living beings on our planet is just a part of this computer. All living beings with exeption of the mice. The mice are the those who built Deep Thought because they wanted to end the disscussion about the answer of the Life, the universe and everything. After some hundred millions years the computer came up with the answer, but when it didn´t satisfy the mice they made the earth to resolve what the question really was.

Surely all you mortals who havent read this book, thinks that the mice are just those creatures humans are trying makeup on, but are really wrong. The mice have, and are running experiments on us the whole time.

The Guide also provides us with the information about how to fly. "To fly" it reads "You have to jump out from an cliff, but exactly before you hit the ground, you miss it." Simple? The hard thing is to be distracted at the right moment.

If you want to read the Guide, follow this link for the whole book in .txt.
Enough about the Guide for now.

Yesterday I tried this guide to rip some CDs. What an amazing quality! First I ripped the CDs thru that guide, then I tried to compare it with CD ripps by iTunes to Apple Loosless. There weren´t that much differnce. Notice that those CD rips thru that guide was 5 megabytes, and the Looseless were 30 megabytes.. ^^

Yeah, and today I found a lost One Piece pocket! Yay! Volym nr 23, Vivi´s Adventure (Directtranslated). I really like those series.

I´ll prolly write another post today, see you then.^^

Gotta get some decent speed.

2005-03-28T16:59:00.000+02:00

Oii!, you random readers out there..

Well, this must be my 10th time or so to start seriously blogging. I will try to write at least a short text to the blogg everyday. Anyways, let´s get started.

My dear friend Amion have started another project. Another? Yes, she is also running the roleplaying site Anerîl, which is in some kind of inactivity.(it´s the trouth Ami-chan, dont kill me.. *dodges for kunais, shuriken and other stuffs*) This new site is for roleplaying in the Legend of Zelda universe, and now I´ve also joined.. Well, I will not lack things to do, at least T_T.
Note that the site is in Swedish.

I´ve recently watched the last episod of Neon Genesis Evangelion, and feel very comfortable with the ending, it´s kind of strange, but I like it anyway. Next thing to do is to watch Death & Rebirth and End of Evangelion. A friend told me that I had to watch those two movies because the two ending Ep´s of the original anime sucked.
To be honest, and not to follow the stream like I do too often, I have to say that I loved the last to EP´s. The 25th were very memorable because of all these 'in-mind' conversations, all these questions, all of it, especially the feeling.. Oww, I can´t really describe it. The 26th, or the last, was superb, first, because the 'in-mind' conversations in this ep too, but mostly because the alternative universe Shinji dreamt of. Where Asuka come to bring Shinji to school, Gendo and Shinji´s mother in a friendly conversation, and small-chatting in the classroom, Rei shows up as a exchange student and Misato as a teacher. Then you see more 'in-mind-chatting' and Shinji suddenly breaks out of his 'in-mind' and seems to be more confident.

The thing that touched me the most was: "Those who hate themself cannot love or trust others." - Ayanami Rei. Aww! Come on! The cutest one in this anime says something that nice. ^^

With those words and the Openingtrack "Cruel Angel Thesis" still in my head, I really like the NGE anime.

I´m also watching Bleach, the only thing I have to say about that is that the series have taken a strange turnaround.. Now it´s much more jokes, or have I forgotten the older EPs?

Anyways, stay alive out there..
