True. Although the guy's gotta run out of juice at some point.
I managed to catch the first couple eps on Youtube. Good, fun stuff.
My only disappointment--which is not everyone's, as I think some
people feel the opposite--is that almost all the incidental music is
recycled from "Next" and "Try" -- it's been 10 years, and I know J.C.
Staff has had some awesome scores recorded for a number of anime, so
certainly they coulda delivered for the much anticipated next Slayers
installment. But that's a minor thing, relatively speaking.

Still no luck on the job search? :( Hope this fiscal year brings good
news.

I understand. Hopefully that won't be an issue in coming years.
It would be fun to visit another con sometime... if I had the planning
skills to do it.
Well, I have the planning skills. I use them all up at my job, and
can't find the energy to use them for anything else. -_-

Yes.... I think that is definitely not helping. Feel better!
