Let's ROCK and ROLL. - GMD
Two new old logged convos of joy: Antonio's Rage and WONDERBOT, along with Episode #18 of the Wowie Zowie Show.
I've got so much to review, so little initiative to write anything. I plan to pull a standard all-nighter on "The Night Before Next Year", perhaps then I can find the power to write. Or I could just watch TV, eat nachos and play Final Fantasy IV like usual... whichever.

"Oops, this service is unavailable! Please try again in a few minutes." - GMD
For those baffled why "wowiezowie.cjb.net" still just redirects to what's left of Wowie Zowie(and I'm sure everyone's just DYING to know!), here's the story.
Step #1: Went to CJB.net. Tried to log in. Forgot password, considering I've only logged in to the account once. Had it sent to my old email address, hosted by the wonderful people at IGN.com(or in actuality, the people of the Snowball Network, since IGN pretty much decided it'd be best to do everything in their power to become Snowball dependant ages ago).
Step #2: Went to check old email address. Even remembered the password this time. Logged in. Email's down. "Please try again in a few minutes", I am told.
Step #3: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #4: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #5: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #6: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #7: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #8: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #9: Waited a few minutes. Tried again. Message is repeated.
Step #10: I realize that I have now grown a beard, lost my virginity, become a legendary Baseball player, and that the world has been infected with a virus that turns everyone into Zombies. I decide that I should stop trying to check my email.
So in other words, until The IGN/Snowball/Whatever Else Is Tied In There Network gets their email service functioning in a few minutes(which I'm assuming is ancient code for an elevated amount of time, much larger than an actual minute), the old redirect won't work.

Merry Christmas, everyone... now GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! - GMD
The images for... well, everything, that were previously not uploaded by myself, have now been uploaded, thus completing the Old Content Transfer entirely.
You'll notice a pretty button in the corner used for linking to and the like now as well, but as long as Tripod doesn't allow remote linking, you can't use it. So until we get our new host, stare at it. Stare at it HARD.
Speaking of which, when that happens I'll add my Ol' Outlaw Star Episode #23: Planet Tenrei Synopsis, which Tripod probably wouldn't allow because it has partially-naked cartoon characters without nipples in comedic situations. This, of course, causes children to shoot each other and Little Jimmy to ignite himself. Or, rather, it'd probably just get LR removed from Tripod. Whichever.
Before anyone begins nagging any of us, the index links on every page are broken. Yes. They are(and if you didn't know that, you may now go check it and say "THEY ARE, HA HA HA HA!"). Blame it on my chronic ability to add ".shtml" to every hyperlink I type now. The problem will be fixed, just as soon as Shenron decides to get us a better Message Board, so as I can get two jobs done at once(I don't really care to go through every page twice, my CTRL key is really starting to get a weak back).
Christmas Vacation has turned on Extended Play 2001(or 2002, after next Monday) in me, as I've found myself addicted to the old Final Fantasies again. I'm taking the sole responsibility of trying to review them all, eventually. I made a vow two years ago to beat them all, completed that, and now, I plan to REVIEW THEM ALL FOR MY INTERNET WEBSITE! At least I have a goal, right?...

Jesus was born, and so I get presents. - GMD
After a mass-amount of editing code, writing new content, and scratching myself many, many times, all of the old WZ content is up, with a few exclusions. Some of the work I never became too fond or proud of didn't make the cut, and one particular Fanfiction of mine purposely wasn't included because, as much as I like slack-jawed yocals and all, I've kinda grown tired of being preeched to by moronic Dragonball fans. So from now on, just preech to me about being a Nintendo Zombie and for that last sentence, alrighty?
In addition to the old content, 5 new features are currently up. They are the following, if you somehow were temporarily blinded on the scroll down: Convos: Fruit-tee-licious, The Adventures of Lolo Review, USA Originals, Convos: Dino Dong, and the latest episode of Wowie Zowie Show, #17.
Last night WB resorted to making a cartoon of a Hillbilly Christmas Song for ratings. I now feel that the spirit of Christmas has been forever tainted.
