Why I Left Steampunk

March 31, 2019

This blog was a long time coming!  I know I haven’t really kept up with the site lately but perhaps if I give you all a slight peek into my background you all might forgive me one day. I have severe, crippling social anxiety and depression.  I’m not talking like todays’ depression that everyone seems … More Why I Left Steampunk

Hello Playstation…I Love You

August 24, 2018

The setting : Late 1990’s.  My best friends little brother (we call him Quev) got gaming consoles and games every Christmas and birthday because they were born into a family of early disposable income and he’s actually a really good person and desereves games.  We loved watching him play in the background when we were … More Hello Playstation…I Love You

U2 World Tour 2017 – Tampa

March 11, 2018

This one.  This might have been the concert that broke Doll and I!  It wasn’t the band!  Hell no!  It was the venue, the weather, and the fans…older fans.  Let me explain plainly. So Tampa is about a four hour drive for us and we just drive and go so the distance got us especially … More U2 World Tour 2017 – Tampa

Metallica 2017 Tour – Orlando

March 11, 2018

Due to life and the fact that I simply haven’t emptied my SD cards in well over a year I have quite a few images to post!  Last year was kind of a crazy and messed up year for me and my best friend Doll who has been my concert buddy since college days but I … More Metallica 2017 Tour – Orlando

MegaCon Failure and How It Was Never Meant To Be

March 11, 2018

I live in sunny, beautiful Florida!  Apart from being the target of tropical storms and feeling like I’m living in Satan’s mouth 10 months out of the year we also have the apple of Florida’s eye…Orlando!  If you can think of anything to get a full blown geek to venture out into the sunshine of … More MegaCon Failure and How It Was Never Meant To Be

Animerica Broke My Heart!

March 4, 2018

Among the many things Dragon’s Tale offered, eventually it offered Japanese magazines…specifically Animerica.  This was a monthly magazine that offered info on upcoming anime and manga release dates.  It also threw in some culture articles and popular news pieces.  I thought it was cool and it was something to look forward to every month. A … More Animerica Broke My Heart!

Sci Fi’s Saturday Anime

December 23, 2017

You can do a quick search to find all the listings from the Sci Fi channels programming Saturday Anime.  For many this was a gateway into anime…not me, but a lot of people see it that way.  I have the ones that stand out to me and these are the ones that I recorded religiously … More Sci Fi’s Saturday Anime

Dragon’s Tale : The Death of the Comic Store

December 10, 2017

It’s still the weekend so the nostalgic joy just keeps on hurting! In my town we had one especially popular comic store in the area with which all forms of nerds, otaku and those guys that like complex mecha models…yeah, this is where they ended up.  It was called Dragon’s Tale and it was my … More Dragon’s Tale : The Death of the Comic Store

VHS Anime : Rent, Record, Repeat

December 9, 2017

As a young child growing up in the 80’s and 90’s I got to watch a lot of anime on TV to be sure, but one of my first memories is from a bootleg VHS recording with two rather mature anime features.  I had a rather emo older brother (7 years older) so he had … More VHS Anime : Rent, Record, Repeat

The Weeaboo Weekender…wait, what?

December 8, 2017

I’m going out on a limb here. I’m going to assume that very few people understand what this means : The “Weeaboo” part. To own the truth I didn’t know what in the hell it meant either! When I was a teen my squad was referred to as “otaku” or the ever popular American words … More The Weeaboo Weekender…wait, what?
