Rewatching Veronica Mars In Preparation For The Veronica Mars Movie

One of my favorite shows of time and today the Veronica Mars Movie Kickstarter broke a record in raising 2 million in less than 24 hours.  The movie is now officially green lit. 
Joss Whedon once said
"Best. Show. Ever. Seriously, I've never gotten more wrapped up in a show I wasn't making, and maybe even more than those [...] These guys know what they're doing on a level that intimidates me. It's the Harry Potter of shows."
With that, if you have not seen the show, time to watch the show.  Currently available on Amazon for streaming.

Do You Know Andrew White? (Why you shouldn't let people borrow your DVDs)


Let my experience be a warning to you on why you shouldn't lend anything to anyone.

It's not often I get upset, but today is one of those days where I am tired of being super nice and having people totally take advantage of me. Andrew White is the "straw that broke the camels back".

He borrowed some of my favorite blu-ray dvds about 4 or 5 months ago. Every time I have asked him for it he either has not responded or been busy etc etc.  My attempt to text him in February resulted in no response back.  Then the following is my attempt to text him today about getting my dvds back and his response













So yeah... mostly just frustrated and there really isn't anything I can do either.  Sure I could dish out another $100 to buy them but why should I.

So do me a HUGE favor if you know Andrew White ask him about Alex Garcia's DVDs, maybe after a while he will get tired of hearing about those dvds and just return them.

Currently listening to Gaslight Anthem '45'

Love me some Gaslight Anthem. It's raw, gritty, emotional with a bit of Bruce Springsteen and Hot Water Music.

#Sakuracon Y U Not Sell Day Passes



 Just bought my tickets to SakuraCon!  Really excited to go just wish they offered day passes.

I was introduced to Sakuracon via a day pass and I have introduced tons of my friends to anime conventions via day passes.  If you are just getting into anime you are probably not likely to dish out $60 for a 3 day pass but you might be willing to dish out 20 or 30 for a one day pass as a way to check out what all the fuss is all about.  There are also tons of people including my bf who work saturday and sunday or friday and saturday and can only attend one day.  $60 for a 3-day pass that you will only be using for one day is pretty steep.  So if anyone from Sakuracon is reading this, please add single day passes, it's a great way for people to get introduced to Sakuracon.

What do you think about the lack of day passes for Sakuracon?
