I’m back, after my exciting adventures in Italy. We talk about that some, do some news, and Batou reviews Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad. I also do new season previews of Birdy the Mighty Decode:02 and Rideback. Also listen for a voice you haven’t heard in a while (and it’s not who you think).
Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers.

Wonder what you’re missing as a non-subscriber? It’s lots of wackiness. Here is the first of more (maybe) chatlogs from our ventrilo server before and during the recording of the shows. Next time I will have timestamps, but this time just know that it’s about three hours of chat, starting 50 minutes prior to the start of theO show and going through the end of the AP show. Let me know if you enjoy this. If not I won’t do it again. And please refrain from the tl;dr comments. I realize it’s freaking long.
Read it as you’re listening, maybe you’ll be able to figure out where things happen, next time I will do the time stamps, as well as mark where shows start and end.

This week much hilarity ensues, as stories of Gaijin Santas, tail-less cats and various units of measurements abound. We discuss the news, which includes the robotic female doll who still won’t let the creepy guy touch her breasts (doh!), Keanu “Dude” Reeves who may or may not be acting in a Live Action Cowboy Bebop as well as other stories. We also review One Outs and Code Geass R2 (What a twist!). Don’t miss it.
One Outs – Wait until it hits the US and NetFlix it.

When I got my normally scheduled call from Batou this morning, it was instead Tim and Weltall. Despite being in the same room, they had trouble not talking over themselves at first, but figured it out quickly. We then went on to have a great show sans Batou. We discussed the news, the benefits of a posse in Japan, biker Santa, etc… and review Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure. Don’t miss this one.
Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure – Wouldn’t kick it out of bed for crackers.

Hi everybody, let me start off by saying that it’s good to be back, and even better that I don’t have to try and reconstruct any data.
So on the 6th I got this email from our hosting company
We will be performing a hardware upgrade on all of our nodes in our current Dallas location on Friday November 7, 2008. The upgrade window will take place from 1:00AM-3:00AM EST. During this time your server will be unavailable for up to 45 minutes.
I didn’t think anything of it until I noticed that the server was down when I checked at 9 AM Friday. I sent a support ticket and they told me that upon restart of the server (note that we’re on a VPS on a very, very large RAID array) it required a fsck.
