Interests of No Interest
Ξ July 17th, 2009 | → 3 Comments | ∇ Randomness |
Just a quick little breather before I compose a new post regarding the anime Summer Season currently underway…
I know, I know (I imagine): “Don’t you have ANY other interests besides that stuff?”
Well, yes. Yes, I do. But actually typing/talking about them doesn’t ever seem to generate much interest, so I’ll wait until the BlogSite is split so that my (more-or-less) faithful anime/music Readers can still pop in here, and the more literary/philosophical ones will be able to enjoy those subjects on the new BlogSite that will be more-directly associated with Unbound (the Novel. Haven’t you been paying attention???!) Hopefully it won’t be too long before the domain is split…
But yeah: I like baseball (Giants and Orioles), reading (though unable to concentrate much on anything at this tumultuous point in time), music (ditto), exploring (no transportation until I retrieve my truck from up north), watching movies (see ditto above), computer gaming (also see ditto *sigh*… I’ve been a HUGE gamer since the days of Zork up until and through Fallout 3), collectibles of all kinds, learning about computing and Internet-related programs and such (first computer: Apple IIe in 1983 and a user of the Internet since well before the WWW), archery, thinking/philosophizing/daydreaming, and… well, I can feel your eyes glazing over even as I type. I know mine are LOL
Oh and I have an interest in girls 
But… see various dittoes above *sigh*
First order of business is always to get my house in order and my place secure, and at present I really need to find an income so that this new place is secure and the house becomes a home. That comes first. Then, we’ll see what happens. I can’t concentrate on building my home (or anything really) unless and until I have a sound and solid foundation. THEN I can play!
But for now, since most of my traffic comes here for anime-related entries, and those persons are the only ones commenting really, I’ll be happy to write for them. Plus, I’ll include the odd Unbound-related entry, because THAT is really what this is all about… and it’s all that anything related to my life has been about ever since deciding to devote my life to Lily-Muse and her Telling of it. Since there hasn’t been much happening on that subject though, I keep those entries rare. I mean, how many posts do you really want to read where nothing is STILL happening with it? Best to simply move on and continue to try and make it happen, and soon enough, it will. We have Faith 
It’s been quite interesting seeing how the results of certain of the promotional aspects that I’ve employed over the years since 2003 have been paying off as shown in the Site statistics. I believe that in using Lily-Doll as an attention-getter by allowing interviews in over half-a-dozen international magazines and books has contributed greatly to the “international feel” as reflected in visits from a multitude of countries, even those not usually associated with English-speakers/readers. After the United States, here’s a little “Top Fifteen” just for fun, listed in number of Page Views:
Mexico, Germany, Luxembourg, Brazil, Italy, Poland, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands, France, Austria, the Ukraine, Argentina, and India.
There are over sixty other countries after those :-O
So, I’d like to take this opportunity to say “Welcome!” and “Hello!” in their respective languages of course but since I’m American I don’t know them :-p, and add that I hope that they all (and You, of course) are finding everything here to your liking. As always, please feel free to comment on the subject at hand, if interested, and I can always use Babelfish to translate comments typed in your native tongue. The World is indeed getting smaller and divided mainly by Towers of Babble Let’s come together!
Er… yeah
And an aside to those scammers/spammers/idiots who attempt to trick me and/or my Visitors into clicking on their lame/useless/malicious links through obviously-duplicitous “comments”… Don’t even try. They won’t even make it through my Spam Filter, and if they do they’ll NEVER get approved (which is why I have to use that feature to screen all comments). And it’s also obvious that since your pathetic attempts contain nothing relevant to the Post you’re supposedly commenting on, that you’re just trying to be a ___________ (fill in the blank with an expletive of your choice). So, fuck you.
All comments should have something to do with the Topic, and not have an address that links to a malicious/stupid/useless site. Oh, and also should not have something like “FreeSex4U” as a User Name. I mean, REALLY *rolls eyes*
So, NO, I do not want to: exchange links (why? LOL); try out ANY product that is not solicited; buy your meds; have anything to do with Viagra; view your pr0nz; allow you to write a Post here; or pretty much anything else that a s/s/i would want to sneak in here to trick me into allowing so that he/she/it can pollute, infect, or degrade my WebSpace or Valued Visitors.
Because my Valued Visitors are indeed just that 
So, until next time…

Hey, if we can get Soriano, Fukudome, Soto, Ramirez, AND Milton Bradley magically hitting again my Cubbies are gonna take that wildcard, so your Giants better catch LA over there in the NL West. Might as well stick a fork in the Birds, though.
Good stuff, Aha xD

Geeeeee, is THAT all? Key word is “magically”, y’know
Today the Giants got hammered 8-1, the O’s lost to those Damn Yankees 6-4, and right now I’m watching the Cubbies enter the 13th inning at Philly, and desperately hoping to end the Phils’ 9-game winning streak :-O
Oh, that was quick… now it’s the bottom of the 13th LOL
Being a native San Franciscan, I have to be a Giants fan, not that there’s anything wrong with that. Just frustrating :-p (I’m a firm believer in supporting your Home Team, not deserting them for a flashier more-popular team *cough non-native Yankee bandwagon fans cough*.)
Anyway, in 1963 the Giants traded away my childhood hero Stu Miller to the Orioles, and, brokenhearted, with that I said “fuck ‘em” and became an O’s fan. Which, in the days of little-to-no American League coverage (no Oakland A’s yet), was quite the task. Still the Birds did have some great seasons. More than the Giants LOL
BUT: Native son = native team. So I’ve supported the Giants throughout the years; even caught a few games at Pac-Bell Park (and don’t get me started on those goddamn Companies purchasing naming rights
).
So, I’m confident that they’ll get the Wild Card, if not overtake the Dawdgers when they fold, which they hopefully will :-p
The Birds hopefully will make it out of the cellar this year. Poor liddle Birdies ;___;
Oh. Fancy that! Jayson Werth just hit a walk-off three-run homer in the bottom of the 13th to beat the Cubbies and get Philly’s 10th win in a row!
*hands kevo a personalized Fork*
