Yeah, got some sleep yesterday. About five hours worth, enough to get me through the night.

Saw a screening of The Last Samurai last night with [livejournal.com profile] jet_li_wannabe, Tracy, and Jerry. It was surprisingly fun. Not Oscar material (but then again, neither were Dances with Wolves or Gladiator), but a good movie. And after the first twenty minutes or so, Tom Cruise stops playing Tom Cruise, and the characters become fun to follow.

I've started watching Geneshaft on TechTV's Anime Unleashed. I'm enjoying what I've seen of it so far, even if it's a bit formula. Decent dubbing, and if I have to watch dubbed anime, I'd rather watch the Tech TV stuff than the stuff that gets aired on most of the other networks.

I'm currently reading Small Pieces Loosely Joined, paid for by work (yay!), but a good read for anyone who's out there on the web at all. Not a lot of new information, but Weinberger does a nice job of organizing some pre-existing concepts.

Links:

Kinky Friedman is running for Governor of Texas!. Gotta love him.

There's a good (although occasionally veering into silly, as when it asks whether the writers whose books are stocked think of themselves as scabs) article on the massively underreported Borders strike over here (scroll down to the Nov 23 link).

As always, please remember to join my army. You can do so once a day.

Also, feel free to join the armies of my officers (which also helps me). Grimcat, Lissell, SFF_Corgi, Gladstone, and Ariela could all use recruits, and there's no limit to how many armies you can join in a day.

I'm sure I'll have more randomness when I return from my meeting.

fuckin' fuck. *I* want Anime Unleashed. My life is so empty.

Oh, did you ever hear that Fantastic Cat song I had up for download for a while?

I can't help it. After seeing the trailer for _The Last Samurai_, every time a mention of the film pops up, Aku's voice appears in my head and says, "Ah! Sam-u-rai Tom!"

Hey, General. My officers are working on their sabotage skills. Let us know if you have any targets to acquire. ;)

If you keep posting requests for recruits, I will be happy to comply. However, if you don't post, I won't remember....

A bigger list of people downstream from yendi in KoC is in my post at http://www.livejournal.com/users/aliza250/32139.html

From what I understand, clicking on the recruit of one of yendi's recruits gives him a quarter of a soldier. :-) Like, say, me. :-) My link: http://www.kingsofchaos.com/recruit.php?uniqid=54w8cxp6

We should start a comunity for this. :-)

Better yet, when the game resets in January, we should get all the LJ players to ally. I've got some ideas for an alliance with three main branches - rank-climbers, battle berserkers, and spies.

How can you get or figure out somebody's recruit link? Yendi's got a new officer, and I'd love to give kir 3 clicks, but I don't know where to find kir link....

Oh, and I 'recruited' Gimlisdottir (http://www.kingsofchaos.com/recruit.php?uniqid=3a4657ja). We needed some dwarvish action in this army....
