Hail,

Not a whole lot to talk about today. I'll be doing a review of the "Is It Fall Yet?" DVD soon, probably this week. No other real Daria news, but that's hardly a surprise. I do still have a couple of site updates in the works, and after I upgrade my computer (hopefully this month) I should be able to start adding to the image and sound sections.

I spent the last weekend at UshiCon. Pretty good turnout for a first-year con, getting people from as far away as Toronto. I'll have a lot more to say about this one soon on Bitter, Twisted Galaxy.
A couple quick items that may be of interest to Daria fans, since there seems to be a fair crossover audience; ADV has confirmed that both Dragon-Half and All Purpose Cultural Catgirl Nuku Nuku will be put out on DVD. They're trying to get them, along with the rest of their back catalog, done this year, but they aren't just shoveling the VHS masters to DVD, so it might take longer than expected.
Also at the con was a viewing of the English language screener of Excel Saga, one of the most off-the-wall comedies around. They showed episodes 4 and 5, so the first DVD should be available in a couple months.
