Behold the wonders of SCIENCE!

As I've been squeaking about on Twitter, I got a new computer Friday. As much as I loved my old laptop, it had gotten to the point where it was having a hard time handling the interwebs due to all the goddamn Flash. The new one's a desktop, and it's pretty sweet (going from a Celeron processor and 512K of memory to a triple-core processor with 4GB of memory was roughly equivalent to going from a paper airplane to an F-14). Transferring files from Mokona (my laptop) to Enkidu (my desktop) was a pain, though, mostly because Enkidu decided that Mokona didn't exist about halfway through the transfer. I blame Vista--it probably realized I was doing something useful and network-related that it could conceivably use to "encourage" me to buy Vista Pro. But two days and a 4GB thumb drive later, I finally have all my music, all my pictures, all my manga, all my doujinshi, and all my fanfic and just managed to beat Firefox into transferring my bookmarks and preferences. :D

I am, however, missing all my OP manga past Ch. 520, though, because OPHQ seems to have let their domain registration lapse and I usually get my OP scans from them. Hook a sister up with some downloads? I know I can read them online at onemanga.com, but I do like actually having the files.

Also, just finished watching Gurren Lagaan. I must admit I wibbled during Episode 26 and had to bite my lip to keep from crying.

So is Gurren Lagann worth it? I tried to watch the first couple episodes and was bored. Should I continue?

I'm a feminist, and of course I watch things that aren't exactly bastions of feminism (One Piece for example, although I'd argue it's the best out of the top Shounen Jump manga in terms of female characters), and I was pretty put-off by the main female character. Does she get better?

There you go:

Beware of 523, cause Oda went off the crack end for that one, esp. regarding Sanji XD I'm convinced he'll hate Luffy forever if he should ever tell Sanji what he 'went through' without his crew...
Oh, and I'm not completely sure the link for 521 will work, the site kept spewing nonsense at me halfway through loading itself, but was operable afterwards.
