I am Shiva the destroyer, your harbinger of doom for this evening.

My movie watching has taken a bit of a hit since I started working, haha. I need to get a better balance between this and anime ... Commando (1985): Thoroughly absurd, ...

My Week in Anime #48

Oh man, yesterday was just what I needed after three consecutive hectic days at work -- a nice day to relax and recharge my batteries. I swear if I had another day filled with making stupid election bio boxes, my brain would have exploded. ...
