- I mentioned , in a previous post ( which might not have made it) that
- Sazan 3x3 Eyes would be appealing to a general audience, especially if
- the "Making of 3x3 Eyes" segmeants were used as well.

- let me guess, is GENOM the tour sponsor .. :-) I Would love one, along
- with one of those BGC Crisis sweatshirts seen in 2033 .
-
- How's about a VISION tour shirt as well ??? ( her sponsor would
- be Ho Bang (sp ?) Music Chips)
-
- I was showing both 2032 & 2033 off to a friend today .. he got the biggest
- kick out of Linna's bikini and Nene's knees :-)
- [* I won't say what he liked about Priss ..:-) *]
- [ HJ e started off using the "C" word ... amazing how fast he stopped using it :-)]
-
- He did like alot of other things about it too. I thought those comments
- were neat in respond to the Knight Saber poll we had awhile back]
- Oh, while I'm talking about NeNe , let me tell you I spotted one of
- the artwork books at Kinokunyia speeling her name as MeMe (* go figure*)
- ..
- re: showing off anime at work:
- Someone at work noticed a BGC gif on my SPARC background and asked if
- it was RoboTech .. when I told him what it was he said
- "what's the difference. They'll all the same"
- Ah well .. more for US to appreciate ;-). BTW, I work for UC Berkeley.
- (Not everyone is into it here :-))
-
- One final comment: You've watched too much anime when you hit the repeat
- one button every time you put in your BGC 4 CD..

- Cheers and Happy New Year
