*Really Really wants Homunculi hares*
This is why I fear doing an auction. gonk It might be better to just do them as a set and sell them at a higher price (like 5k per set). Then I don't feel bad and get people all depressed when only one person gets the set. Intelligent and fun people crying = lose sad

Yeah... I'm sure there would be a lot of competition for the set if there was only one... Perhaps either limiting them by time period or number, and selling at a higher price would be the better way?

...And I'm not just saying that because I don't want to risk losing them. ninja *cough* Not at all.

You should check out Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy...

And some of Terrry Pratchett's Discworld books too, while you're at it. They're fantasy, but totally hilarious. Death is a commonly appearing character, and he gets some great moments.


But on a school note, if you ever want to do a report on Dumas' The Three Musketeers, lemme know and I can reccomend a really good edition of it and help you with some of the points in it. Its one of the finest stories ever written, and would probably impress your teachers.
It's been on my desk forever.. I really need to get to reading it.. gonk

I'll look into 'em, how many are there?

He's up to somewhere in the high 20s as far as the series goes, but they don't really depend on you having read everything before. They can be read as stand alones, though there are some running gags that get funnier when you've seen them develop over time, and a few in jokes here and there... They also break down into a few sub-sets of books that focus on specific characters... For example, a few of the books (and not all in a row publication orderwise) focus on the town watchmen of the city of Ankh-Morpork, and as you read them you can see the watchmen develop as a unit and eventually a police force.

They're not huge books though, maybe 250 pages or so, and given how entertaining they are, you can easily read them in a day or two. He's good enough to make you want to stay.

I tried looking for info on it online, but apparently it is an out of print edition... gonk

Just find yourself a good copy that is complete and unabridged and you should be good. Some of the translations might be slightly different, but try to avoid ones that use too much modernization... A lot of the feel of the story is in the words used. This makes no less than three copies of The Three Musketeers that I own that are out of print.... sweatdrop

Trust me when I say that the original story is very little like most of the movies made about it.

Also, Stream, and everybody, I highly suggest a series called Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad. It's amazing. Probably my favorite series along with with Bleach, My HiME, and Robotech. It's basically about the life of this kid, and stuff happens to him that lead to him getting very involved in music, and eventually joining a band... it's quite good, and if you like music, or romance/drama/stuff like that, this is definitely worth watching.

Heh, I'm actually downloading some of that right now...

Oh, and you need to watch Speed Grapher.

I think I should sell one of my letters, but..... the only one worth anything is my Jan 04 and I've only got one. And now that I'm considering selling it... I kinda want the chain wallet. I'm so greedy it causes poorness! gonk crying

Don't mind my greediness. Once I graduate, I'll go back to making my hares and I'll have gold to spend again. 2 more weeks! :minigonk:

When you fire the hares back up, lemme know. I know a bunch of people who I might be able to get fired up over them...

And a few ideas for limited edition hares...
I'm seriously... SERIOUSLY thinking about doing 2 sets of 5 hares of Ed/Al/Roy/Hawkeye/Armstrong and 1 set of Envy/Lust/Gluttony/Sloth/Greed and maybe/possibly/dunno (<~ I need a serious reason to do this and I can't think of one) auction them off.

ninja I'll also be doing Harry Potter Hares in late June/July.

How about Bleach hares?

So what's it like having two minions rather than one?

I wouldn't know. They're supposed to confer with me and all that but they rarely do, and I'm usually too busy working on something else to check on them. I'm thinking of actually drilling and testing them when Rosa gets demodded but that'd require me to actually try managing AMC again on top of my other duties. neutral

You could always just lock them in a room with me and consider any survivors to pass... surprised

If anyone can find me the FULL version of Diner Dash for download, without paying, I will give you 1k. sweatdrop

Edit: Wait, is that legal in the TOS? gonk Cause I've been meaning to ask about art for gold VS TOS.

And Kane just mentioned that Aki's sig pic looks like an older version of Skizz from the pictures I have of her. I have to admit, I was thinking it too... smile
..except that I'm blonde?

Its not so much a haircolor thing, especially with the sun highlighting her hair... Its more of a facial thing.
