It's a good time to be a free human in society!
Every hour of the day I'm finding myself astounded by another piece of technology, another comfort I never would have imagined had existed even two weeks ago.
Anime is everywhere! I thought it would be a niche market but no, at least the more popular titles are as mainstream as *insert corporate brand here*.
Today I received my first Anime T-shirt from Amazon.

Also When I was walking back from the grocery store I seen the actual "Straw Hat Crew"!

Now I haven't had much luck with the BBCode in this installation of phpBB so if these links aren't working or displaying then PM me and I'll be happy to find another way to share them.

Additionally,
I do have experience working with phpBB and am looking for employment so. . .

At any rate it has been a great first week out, and I'm looking forward to sharing more of my adventures soon.

Anyone know where I can get some good quality Anime themed Disc Golf Discs?

Cool T-shirt! Do you know if there are any anime conventions in your general area? There's one in Toronto every year at the end of May called Anime North. It's a blast.

Your images showed up just fine, but as links. Keep in mind that this isn't the latest version of phpBB

If you want to post images you're going to have to use an image hosting site, like imgBB. Once you have uploaded the image to the site, click on the Embed Codes button and select BBCode full linked. That will generate a link that you just cut and paste into your post.

Yeah, I don't think leaving the country will work right now Smile but I'll be keeping my eyes open for something close for sure.

Oh, i wasn't suggesting you travel to Toronto, just check to see if there will be any conventions near you. It's fun to mix with people in your own tribe!

Hey Blood-
Great suggestion on looking for local conventions I found this one in Kansas City, about a 2 hour drive from me. And I am already going to be there for a live show that Friday night for MBMBAM. So looks like I got plans now Smile
