Well, I dunno how they'd stack up to your grown up brain Tcho... I watched them in Jr. High, and they were hokey, but still, I'm a comic book nut so I was allowing for some silliness. I really remember liking the series, and I think you might be surprised at how much better they were than the first season of Power Rangers. Eh... I say go for it, your grown up brain will have to be ready to allow some campy stuff. They're still good enough I enjoy 'em. I remember laughing at the "silent short" housemonster skits at the end of episodes, sometimes they were pretty good, sometimes too ridiculous. But give it a look, I think that show managed to shake things out after the initial first episodes. When they replaced Jo for Metallix I kinda lost interest. That actress sucked. Oh..and so did Little Ghoul.

That would be pretty awesome to see Digimon get big again. I'd definitely watch it and obsessively buy all the merchandise. Mighty Max... wow, haven't heard that one in years. I'd love to see Mighty Max come back. The Ghostbusters tried to come back with that game, I don't think it did too well.... and I heard rumors of a new movie, but I'm not sure of how valid those are. Also, in a previous post, you mentioned Big Bad Beetleborgs, haha, I remember when I was a kid I had a phase of watching that. It's another one I'm afraid to watch, lest it be ruined by my grown up brain....

Speaking of Digmon in a general way, I remember reading once that merchandisers usually try to keep brands in a 10 or 15 year cycle, or in other words, all that was old is new to the old kid's kids. So I wonder if we'll be seeing some classic Digimon Season 1 stuff coming out again sometime soon. I only comment here because of the resurgence of Carebears and He Man and My Little Pony and the like. Though I also have to wonder, where's Mighty Max, isn't he about due back? Or the Ghostbusters? We all know those turtle boys rarely go away, as with the Transformers.
I don't remember when, but I know at some point years ago I knew the Joker was played by Mark Hamill. I think I read it in an old issue of Sci Fi Universe.

Darkdigidude caught a jetstream with his ragged Devimon-like wings, and the strange fusion of good and evil surged deep within his subconscious, each side struggling for the upper hand. He could see the sea far below moving quickly as a dim instinct directed him to Server-Net Island. He wanted the destruction of something there, and yet he didn't know why. So the incompatibility in his head continued as he lumbered on in auto-pilot. The island in view, he began his descent.
DarK Sakura was sweeping the front steps of the UDD Floating Museum, humming softly to herself. Dressed in her finest shrine maiden costume, she smiled and looked at the blue sky. The soft wind was blowing down through the cherry trees, and a sweet smell was in the air. Cherry blossoms bloomed all year round in the Digiworld, and she cherished her self-appointed duty as caretaker of the UDD's many portals of history. As she went to put her broom away in the gate house, a chill wind suddenly blew accross her cheeks, and the sky seemed to change quickly to darkness. She shivered, remembering times past when the UDD had been darkened this way, when Yggdrasil had threatened to bring the entire Digiworld to an end. But that threat had ended, and peace had been ongoing. She did not hear the silent approach of her attacker, and Negative Sakura sprang upon her hapless double with familiar quickness. "Time for the night shift to take over!" Negative Sakura threw Dark Sakura headlong into the gatehouse, where she crashed into the gardening supplies. Shaken but not completely surprised, Dark Sakura watched her evil twin advance, razor sharp fans in either hand. All she had with her was her shrine broom and whatever pots and implements were in the heap with her. Negative Sakura swept down with one of the fans, clearly aiming to end the confrontation quickly, but Dark Sakura deflected it with the broom handle, though the broom itself was chopped neatly in half. She sent a kick into Neg Sakura's gut, and the fight was on.
Both Sakuras leapt deftly about the gatehouse, leaving a trail of crashing shelves and supplies as they went. Negative Sakura made precise strikes with her fans, while Dark Sakura blocked with her own mix of flower pots and gardening implements. Dark Sakura knew the dizzying merrygoround of a battle couldn't last forever, as she was running out of random objects to fight with. On their fifth go round past the door, Dark Sakura jumped back out of the entry and did a quick backflip handstand as a razor fan passed millimeters from her nose mid-backflip. It bounced off of a stone column near the museum entrance, and she took the opportunity to glide quickly over and take it from the floor. Her negative double was right over her again, but this time they both lashed out with the fans, each empoying the deadliest combos they knew. Sparks blasted about the museum area as they continued their deadly dance, fans clashing, teeth gritted. Finally, they had to take a pause as each needed to catch their breath. "I really like how you've kept this place up." Negative Sakura commented, looking around the museum, "I can't wait to get you out of the way so I can become the new shrine maiden here." With this she let a devilish look pass over her face. "I have big plans on how I'll keep it up... lots of cobwebs, rot, filth...a total corruption of the data in here!" She laughed, preparing to bring her fan back up and resume the fight but was shocked when instead she dropped it to the ground unwillingly. She looked down at her hand, only to see it had been cut off at the wrist, her other razor fan having been thrown by Dark Sakura. "AAAAAAGH! YOU BI-" She was cut off from finishing by Dark Sakura's sandaled foot directly into her face, sending her crashing into unconsciousness.

Re: On a Random Update Note « Result #10 on Dec 4, 2009, 7:29pm »
Since Tripod migration seems to have made my site into a pile of unusable crap, I'm working on a revamp of imaging and such. We'll see if I can even work within their crappy new free site framework. Otherwise, I may have to make a more permanant migration to some other free service. Just a little heads up. I'm doing image work either way, and I've got a really cool new story book feature in the works that's nearly to completion. Stay tuned for further updates!
