More pics of the Moonsault
Here are some more example pics of how the moonsault is done:

What, you didn't think Kurt Angle knew how to fly? Even the Olympic champion has to take risk at some point.



Various luchadores (wrestlers from Mexico) have used the moonsault occasionally.



This is how Lita won the Women's Championship belt. You go, Lita!



This one, straight out of Japan.





Watch out!





I am up for comments! This time, I had some pics ready.

I have a bonus manuever for you guys that I will post later on. Consider this as an early Christmas present to my fellow otakus. See you then!

And we all become the exhausted
I felt a bit tired earlier today. I remember watching the VHS tape that I usually watch for one minute, and by the next minute, I immediately slumped over. Perhaps, I am not getting enough sleep as I thought I did. (Damn, I need to rest.)

I started to gain interest for an incredible series known as Broken Saints. So far, I had already seen seven episodes and it is beautifully constructed. It has incredible cinematography and crisp illustration, as well as a interesting storyline to boot. It is as if you're watching a comic book that has been done as a Flash movie. I recommend seeing at least two or three episodes to see how prolific the series is.

To visit the Broken Saints website, click here.

I have almost completed one drawing today, so I'm planning on drawing another just for keeps. Well, time to sign off.

Tis' well!

   Typical
I'm not doing much at this time except finishing off an extra credit assignment, along with my final exam for English. I"ve gotten almost everything out of the way besides the previous two exams I had taken this week. *sighs* What a relief! Now I just have to worry about registering for the next semester.

I have been practicing on creating wallpaper, and needless to say, I'm becoming very good at it. I'm re-learning the tools and components on Photoshop, plus I finally manage to post two of my wallpaper into the Crossover Anime section of the wallpaper page. *sighs* Boy, this is a ton of fast typing.

Well, I believe I'll just chill for the weekend. Other than that, I plan on drawing again, since I'm playing cacth up at this point.

I know this is early, but I'm getting the feeling who's going to be next week's Character of the Week.



Try guessing who this woman is on the comments page.

Well, signing off. Tis' Well!

   Tribute to Hometown Hero


This post goes out to a hometown hero who was perhaps one of the most celebrated hard rock guitarists, "Dimebag" Darrell Abbot of Pantera/Damage Plan.

At exactly 7:30 a.m., I have just woken up when I tuned to the radio and heard perhaps one of the most shocking and disturbing news I had ever heard. Apparently, the band Damage Plan was performing at a venue at Columbus, Ohio. Just when the band started to perform the first song, a derranged gunman approached the stage, shouted countlessly at Dimebag and shot him six times at point blank range. The gunman then shot at one of Dimebag's Damage Plan bandmate ( his name remains unidentified )and numerous members of the audience before being gunned down by an officier. Dimebag was killed instantly by the gunman's rounds. He was just 38 years of age.

I wanted to take this time posting this message just to say how sickened I am about this shocking news. It's so sickening to the point where I'm almost angry. How would someone so delusional become so violent at the same time? Just because your favorite band had broken up does not mean you have a reason to claim the life of an individual that many people are connected to. It is not worth it to take a life over selfish reasons. Can you even imagine how many music fans reacted to John Lennon's murder or the unexpected shooting of Jam Master Jay (Jason Mizell) of Run DMC?

Moreover, there is exactly no goddamn reason for three innocent bystanders of that concert to die with Dimebag. Was there any reason to shoot them as well? I honestly cannot phathen the stupidity of one individual's choice to make a incredible event into a sudden tragedy. I could have never imagine anything like that happening at a musical event, esp. a heavy metal concert.

As most of you should know, Pantera started their roots in Texas, the state where I was born and raised in. For the past two decades, they have been celebrated as one of the most prolific hard rock bands to have ever hit the scene. In Texas, many people look up to Pantera, including Dimebag, and also celebrate the contributions they have crafted throughout the band's career. I symphonsize the sadness in those fans' hearts as they pay omish to Dimebag Darrell.



My condolences go out to the loved ones of the victims, and to the slain gunman, may your savior have mercy on your tarnisheed soul.

For more information about this tragic event, click here.

I am open for any comments from anyone about today's post or yesterday's post. You can also leave a pm for me as well.

Well, I'll be signing off now. R.I.P, Dimebag.

   Blue Monday?
Usually, I quote the reference "blue Monday" discerning on how anyone would feel on a Monday. However, my Monday ended on a good note. I had almost completely done with everything leading to the end of the semester. Now, I'll just have to worry about the finals, two of which I'm taking this week. Finally, I figured out where I had left my backpack: inside the open technology lab. *sigh* What a coincidence!

On Monday night, I recorded the main event match between Trish Stratus and Lita for the Women's title. It was perhaps one of the best matches, along w/ the tag team cage match from the TNA pay per view the night before. See Heavens Cloud's post from Monday.
Of course, Lita won the Women's Championship belt after connecting w/ a top rope moonsault on Trish. I wanted Lita to win so badly, considering what she had to endure the past two years. For some reason, a sense of joy and excitement rushed through my veins. I had never been so excited about a wrestling match before, yet on that night, Lita totally blew me away. I was so happy for her. ( MAKE WAY FOR THE QUEEN OF EXTREME! YATATE!! )

At long last, my two wallpapers have finally been approved. (Sorry about the sudden PM, Panda.) I believe I have done a great job on them for such a short amount of time. The wallpaper was definitely dedicated to the Character of the Week Captain Tylor. I hope you guys enjoy them as much as I have.

By the way, check out this website!

Before I go, I would like to ask you guys one question:

Which of this year's catch phrases do you believe deserves to be called the "best" of 2004?

• Gov. Arnold Swanzenagger: "Don't be economic girlie man!"


• Paris Hilton: "That's hot!"


• Dave Chappelle *chuckles*: "I'm Rick James, bitch!"


• Donald Trump (of course): "You're fired."

I'll be signing off now. Tis' well!

   And now, for today's...

WICKED MANUEVER OF THE WEEK!

Two words and seven syallbles can be used to describe this manuever:

The pic is here!!

CANADIAN DESTROYER!!

One of the most devastating and effective manuevers I've ever seen. Invented and perfected by Team Canada captain Petey Williams, this manuever has left a (mental) scar upon the individuals who were on the receiving end.

The user first measures his opponent, who is already down from previous attacks, by imitating that he is "reeling 'em in" by pulling a rope (taunting). As the opponent rises to a vertical base, the user greets him/her w/ a shot to the mid-section, allowing the user to place the opponent into a powerbomb/piledriver position. Utilizing his flexibility and quickness, the user attempts a quick roll-up, in which one would think he is going for a sunset flip. Instead, the user is actually grasping the opponent's head w/ his legs, causing the opponent to flip along w/ the user and receive severe damage as his/her head lands dangerously onto the canvas. At this state, the user has stunned his opponent to the point where he/she is close to paralysis. It has a tremendous effect upon the opponent, and if executed correctly, the injuries sustained afterwards is less severe.

So, any comments?

Just Chilling...
I'm in the library again since the library is in fact one of only three places I can actually have access to a computer. (Damn, I wish I had a labtop.) I went to the library because I thought that my backpack was left there, but when I asked one of the librarians, she said there was a chance that the other librarians had kept it for safe keeping. In order words, they wanted to prevent anything to be stolen.

Last night, I was just drawing, watching Toonami and Adult Swim by 1:00, and drawing while listening to my newly bought Comalies LP (cannot get enough). I wanted to record an episode of Ghost in the Shell: SAC but failed to position the tape in order for me to record it. After awhile, I wanted to continue drawing, but I started to fall asleep, so I hitted the bed earlier than usual.

Hopefully, I can finally regain possession of my backpack so that I won't be in trouble. Before I leave, I'd thought someone would give this a try:


What Witch Hunter Robin Character Are You?
Hosted by theOtaku.com: Anime. Done right.

Reminder: Tomorrow, the Wicked Manuever of the Week will be revealed.

Signing off. Tis' Well!

   Two Stars, Both Faultering
For the past nine to ten months, the BALCCO Scandal has been rearing its ulgy head, esp. in the world of baseball. The scandal even brought out a cloud among the this year's Summer Games (as if anyone besides me was watching it, anyway) and its participants. However, no one knew that it would actually come to a head like THIS .

(*sighs* This is definitely a stain that may never go away, even at our dying day.)

In case you haven't read yesterday's post, you shall freely make your comments onto today's post. I'm itching to see what everyone would say about this.

Reminder: I promised to make it up to you guys for my miscalculation for this week's Wicked Manuever. This time, I won't have to choose a manuever at the last minute as I did last week.

I'll be signing off now, for I have much to do today and little time to do them.

Tis' Well!

   Bloopers!
I'll be a bit busy today, so I decided to give everyone something that I find hilarious. Remember the links that I've posted for comics in the previous two weeks? Well, I'd thought I give you what is claimed to be a lapoon on the DBZ Freiza Saga. I hope you find this to be hilarious as much as I have. (Duh, I read this comic a dozen times.)

Also, I wanted to show you guys this because it has touched me deeply. Just recently, a particular NBC news anchor has taken an exit, and I've actually grown up with him. Man, I hope I wouldn't say this, but it saddened me to see him go.

The abc kid, signing off!

   Busybody
I wanted to post a message yesterday, but I've been quite busy with plenty of work I had to do. Nevertheless, the amount of tasks handed down before me haven't shortened, so I will have to report to you at a different time.

(Hmph! Damn floppy disk can't work for anybody today!)

I hoped everyone enjoyed this week's Wicked Manuever. The Flash Kick wasn't originally appointed to be this week's manuever, but I decided to post it at the last minute due to the fact I was unable to type in the correct components for pics of a different manuever that I had in mind. I won't worry about it, 'cause nobody is perfect. I tend to make as many mistakes as the next person before me. However, I appreciated everyone's comics.

I wish I could say more, but this will have to do. For now, this kid is signing off!
