*wink* to those who fell for the paperclip otaku (thanks Mike) and SomeGuy's April Fools.

I found a great deal to go to the Washington DC Sakura Festival. I'll be there one night and will go 'otaku seeking' as per my normal routine. Are there any DC members here?

I'm really fond of yourname.theotaku.com, it's just so much nicer than portfolio/yourname

Speed Grapher reminds me of the Stanley Kubrick movies Eyes Wide Shut and Clockwork Orange

I want to get back into martial arts since I've been a sloth the last few months and I'm having trouble getting to the gym. I studied Kung Fu for like 6 years from two different schools. There's a famous kung fu school here in NYC taught my a Shaolin Monk, but I'm kind of tempted to try something new and sign up at a kickboxing/MMA school near my place. What do you think? It's a philosophical question, should one continue what they know with an amazing teacher or try something new to broaden horizons?
