ef - An episode too far
December 29, 2007 – 3:12 am
“So class, what morals did you learn today?”
Also my immediate reaction after finishing the series.
ef - a tale of memories. From the beginning, Yuko was the personification of the small miracle that is personal triumph, while Yu was the jaded cynic. The outcome, punctuated by Yuko’s appearance, was inevitable. But for me, [...]
Documenting Dennou Coil : Prior events
December 26, 2007 – 5:31 pm
What follows is a high level overview of the events covered or hinted at in Dennou Coil. I have never written a “documentation” type entry before, so this may come off as dry (or drier) in tone. Why documentation? Because it’s just that interesting to me. Dennou Coil has a [...]
Dennou glasses are a wireless carrier’s best friend
December 23, 2007 – 3:47 pm
I was always kind of fuzzy about how kids “broke” their glasses and how it would cost an arm and a leg to “fix” but now I see. Things went too quickly to notice that in addition to a download progress bar, there’s a billing meter, and it goes up crazy fast. Even [...]
The J.C. Staff Touch
December 23, 2007 – 5:38 am
Are those supposed to be clarinets?
If they are, that’s a point for irony considering they did Nodame Cantabile.
Looking back at the year, J.C. Staff really nailed down slice of life. The only series that prevented a clean sweep was the second season of Zero no Tsukaima, which was a sore point indeed.
Even in titles [...]
This party’s over!
December 21, 2007 – 11:24 pm
Dennou Coil was the first thing I caught up with following my “break,” and it has been one of the most engaging series I have ever seen, let alone this year. The last nine or so episodes have left me at a loss for words. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) the same effect has carried [...]
Oversold
December 20, 2007 – 4:39 am
If you would humour me for a moment, please consider the following graph and its accompanying observation.
Shares in RASU tumbled following downgrades from numerous analysts after a disappointing first quarter. However, the company executed well and has since established a base of support above its recent low.
Now that you’re either scratching your head or [...]
[Meh-ta] What has CALCULUS done?!
December 20, 2007 – 4:38 am
What happens when you take the derivative of white noise and set it zero?
The PBF is strong in this one.
While not as doomed as our hapless hero, I still think that numerous LOL moments will be had by my exam markers. While there wasn’t any cake at the finish line, music was fine too.
By [...]
No free lunch

Not only did EMI foot the licensing costs for all of those “free” ringtones, they’re paying her. Why not donate the proceeds to charity?
[Meh-ta] Writer’s block
December 12, 2007 – 9:06 pm
Image link goes here.
I will be out of the loop - as opposed to being just out of it - for the next little bit.
I’m quite fond of that particular application of an NPN transistor. It reflects those enjoyable lab afternoons where nothing goes right for half of us. And it’s true! Taking [...]
