San Diego, not for work
Well, I'm off to San Diego tomorrow, for to go to the Comic-Con. More once I get there.
Alright, so I just got back from friday at Comic Con. Finally decided to share stuff. So I wandered around for a good chunk of time, got another book signed by Margaret Weis, took some pictures of the big Golden Compass display, and failed to get any Spiderwick Chronicles stuff (there's a movie coming out, but I've read nothing so far). Then we (my sister and I) went to see Niel "Scary Trousers" Gaiman talk about stuff. Then it was off to one of the big auditoriums to watch a few panels.
We came in during the middle of a two part panel. The first part had Frank Miller talking and answering questions. Part two was Ridley Scott, Syd Mead, and a good chunk of the cast of Blade Runner talking about the new edition. One of the best parts was the one actor talking about one of the takes of the scene where he kisses Rutger Hauer, he's not sure why he did it, but he opened his mouth and gave Rutger Hauer the tongue.
Next there was a 30th anniversary Star Wars thing, except it was really an ad for Lucasarts and Lucasfilm. Except they were talking about how one of peoples favorite things to do is parody the series. They showed a video of several clips and then introduced someone to talk about the season premiere of Family Guy. So, out comes Seth MacFarlane, complete with drink in hand, and he talks about doing a whole episode devoted to Star Wars (the version from Celebration VI can be seen here, but we didn't get everything that they did, but we did get the scrolling text at the beginning, which was hilarious).
After that was the real reason we were in that room, Q&A with Kevin Smith. Funniest man alive. He did actually have something serious to say, about the show he directed called Reaper. We saw the pilot episode there, very good. Only show that has been on CW that has made me actually want to change to that channel. Other than that, he gave one of his infamously obscene Q&A's. Very funny. Yes, I did edit this, there are family members of mine that might read this.

Question for the masses
Okay, I'm pretty sure the Id would be cookie monster, but I'm not sure what Sesame Street character would be the Ego or Superego.

Stop motion
This is why when I origionally saw Puffs commercials, they creeped me the hell out.
I seem to be having an issue with youtube and new blogger.

Creepiness
I may have mentioned the creepy flash cartoon called Salad Fingers. Well, here is the demense of the tortured mind from whence it came.
On a completely unrelated note, Final Fantasy midis and a plce to send files to your phone. I reccomend doing it the free way with midis (polyphonic).

Car news
My car sucks.
Allow me to elaborate. Yesterday, with the help of a friend, I installed a Stillen high flow intake. (Actually, it's a K&N filter, just a larger one than would normally be used, with upgraded hardware made by Stillen.) So, about 20 horses have been added for $130, as well as slightly improved gas milage. And it makes this great (but not too loud) sort of high-pitched sucking sound when in the higher rpms.
Next comes better exhaust, because it's one of the things I had planned, and each of the mufflers has a big hole that they're not supposed to have.

New experiences
Okay so I just finished watching the movies that end the series Neon Genesis Evangelion and it was awesome, and I would totally reccomend it to people, but I have one question.
WHAT THE FUCK?!
WHAT THE FUCK?!
