- Going back to Tokyo later this month to begin work prancing around front of the camera for...well, I've been told to keep my mouth shut until further notice. But, yeah, it should be fun. Contact me if you're also in town, if something "wacky" is happening, or if you'd simply like to meet up.
- Selling stuff on eBay, like the soundtracks to HOUSE on CD and LP. I never thought it would come to this, but that yen-dollar exchange rate is a killer. Check out my auctions here. I'll probably let go with some anime books and doujinshi soon as well.
- I was a guest on the ANNCast podcast talking about stuff that really matters like Otaku USA and Harmageddon. Link here.
- Speaking of Otaku USA, I've been writing for the official website quite a bit lately, and will continue to do so. Right now, I'm working on a travel diary and another series called 2010 is 1980.
- The big enchilada right now is the TokyoScope Talk Deluxe: BAD GIRLS & WILD WOMEN! show at NEW PEOPLE in San Francisco on 9/13. Please come down if you are in the area! Shochu distiller Haamonii will be one of the sponsors of the V.I.P. pre-show party, and we'll have free food and drinks, so show up at 6pm for full effect. Link to advance tickets page here.

That "Super Weaponry in the Toho Films" book is terrific. I like it more than the fancy hard-backed "Toho Mechanic-Chronicle" that came out a while back.
Years ago, I found 3 or 4 copies of "Super Weaponry" in a local comic book store and after keeping one for myself, eBayed the others away at a tidy profit.
