Hey everybody. Im finally back on my old PC, and it feels great. Aside from some issues of missing files and a dead mouse (don't ask how I am doing this mouse free, its almost as impossible as using my PSP to browse the net).

So, I figured i'd reintroduce myself, since there are SO many more people than when I disappeared.

My alias is Kaioh. Its taken from Hokuto no Ken, one of my favorite manga. I enjoy pretty much every manga I read (and trust me, i've read lots), and like to contribute a good review every now and then (I plan to write some more after I get everything back working in a stable way, and catch up on the last seven months of manga I have missed out on).

Its good to back, and I am happy this place is still here. 😀

Thanks, and yeah, ALONG time since the last post.

Thats what happens when ya screw with the Windows XP OS and don't expect some fatal errors to happen.

Ironically, had I found my actual XP disc much sooner, I could have fixed this along time ago. It was buried in a drawer and I randomly found it over the previous weekend.

The first time in around ten years I haven't had a home PC to use. It was awkward and weird getting used to doing things normal people do. Like sleep during the night (since I usually do it during the day).

It was a good learning experience, if anything, though.

Thank you, thank you. As soon as I can, ill get some more good reviews ready for ya. 😀

Well, after I update myself on all ongoing series I have been missing. 😀

The past seven months I spent preoccupying my attention with video games, and anything else I could do. Mostly RPG's. I logged over 120 hours in Rogue Galaxy alone, not to mention I have yet to finish Final Fantasy XII (Took a break after beating the Hell Wyrm and Zodiark).

Also, I have been seeing alot of movies lately. Recently I watched Wild Hogs (which was hilarious) and 300 (Which was Epic).

I've heard 300 was really good... I plan to go see it when I get a chance.

We though in my school of a mass-ditching to go see 300, I've been waiting since the first trailer showed up.

Well, other than that, hi, Kaioh, nice to meet you.

Yeah, knowing when people go on vacation they live without internet, I wonder if there are people under 40 or even under 30 years old that live without the internet very long. Or maybe they substitute their cellphones for the internet.

Anyhow, glad to see you're back and your computer is running. 🙂 I thought you had gone on vacation or left to go to the other side of the world, where I've heard people say that they are saying goodbye to a because they are going to Japan to work. 😉

Welcome back to land of working PCs. ^^; -is a new person to the site-

I usually spend all summer without any link to technology...
Well this year probably won't be the case, I have to work can't afford to go on vacation. But I do wish I could. I really enjoy my summer with just the beach, the friends, etc... and nothing else.

300 was awesome. One of the best comic to movie adaptations I have ever seen. I can rest easy knowing the director of 300 is also doing Watchmen.

At first, this was hard. I went to the Library every day to use the PC. It gradually became less and less until I only went about once a week, sometimes less.

Yes, the mod is back. Just check out the slammin' Kratos avatar. 😀

Side note regarding the avatar. I saw a friend earlier wearing a God of War II t-shirt, and I asked him where he got it (Well it went more like "WTF?"), and he said they're free with purchase, but that he got the last one. I couldn't help but call him a bastard, because he smiled as he told me this.
