I have been so busy ! I am still around ~ will update soon. Hope every one is well.

The day of feasting draws near - I wish everyone a happy Turkey day & happy holidays ~ ^_^

I am heartbroken,angry,and so very sad... after watching what went down at Virginia Tech. ~

I can *NOT imagine* what it is like to hear that there have been shots fired at the school your kid goes to... then try to find them & get no answer. *My God.*

My thoughts & prayers go out to everyone touched by this. I am so sorry this happend.

John woke up one morning immensely aroused so he turned over to his wife's side of the bed. His wife, Heather, had already awakened though, and she was downstairs preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Afraid that he might spoil things by getting up, John called his little boy into he room and asked him to take this note to your beautiful Mommy."
> > The note read:
> > The Tent Pole Is up,
> > The Canvas Is Spread,
> > The Hell With Breakfast,
> > Come Back To Bed.
Heather, grinning, answered the note and then asked her son to take this to your silly Daddy.
> > Her note read:
> > Take The Tent Pole Down,
> > Put The Canvas Away,
> > The Monkey Had A Hemorrhage,
> > No Circus Today.
John read the note and quickly scribbled a reply.
Then, he asked his son to take it back to "the lady in the kitchen."
> > His note read:
> > The Tent Pole's Still Up,
> > And The Canvas Still Spread,
> > So Drop What You're Doing,
> > And Come Give Me Some Head.
Laughing, Heather answered the note and then asked her son to take this to the poor dude upstairs."
> > Her note read:
> > I'm Sure That Your Pole's
> > The Best In The Land.
> > But I'm Busy Right Now,
> > Do It By Hand!

The following is a list of the major genres and designations that are specific to anime and manga.

For other possible genres, see cinematic genre.

Bishōjo: Japanese for 'beautiful girl', blanket term that can be used to describe any anime that features pretty girl characters, for example Magic Knight Rayearth.

Bishōnen: Japanese for 'beautiful boy' blanket term that can be used to describe any anime that features "pretty" and elegant boys and men, for example Fushigi Yūgi.

Ecchi: Derived from the pronunciation of the letter 'H'. Japanese for 'indecent sexuality'. Contains mild sexual humor, and some fan service, for example Love Hina.

Hentai: Japanese for 'abnormal' or 'erverted', and used by Western Audiences to refer to pornographic anime or erotica. However, in Japan the term used to refer to the same material is typically Poruno or Ero. Example: La Blue Girl.

Josei: Japanese for 'young woman', this is anime or manga that is aimed at young women, and is one of the rarest forms. Example: NANA.

Kodomo: Japanese for 'child', this is anime or manga that is aimed at young children, for example Doraemon.

Moé: Anime or manga featuring characters that are extremely perky or cute, for example Little Snow Fairy Sugar and Akazukin Chacha.

Progressive: "Art films" or extremely stylized anime, for example Voices of a Distant Star.

Seinen: Anime or manga targeted at teenage or young male adults, for example Oh My Goddess!.

Sentai/Super Sentai: Literally "fighting team" in Japanese, refers to any show that involves a superhero team, for example Cyborg 009.

*FB*** A personal FAV***

Mahō shōjo: Subgenre of shōjo known for 'Magical Girl' stories, for example Sailor Moon.

Shōnen: Japanese for 'boys', Shōnen is like Seinen, but refers to anime or manga targeted at younger boys, for example Dragon Ball Z.

Mahō shōnen: Male equivalent of Mahō Shōjo, for example DNAngel.

Shōjo-ai/yuri: Japanese for 'girl-love', refers to anime or manga that focus on love and romance between female characters, for example Revolutionary Girl Utena. It is often being replaced by the term "Girls Love" (GL).

Shōnen-ai/Yaoi: Japanese for 'boy-love', refers to anime or manga that focus on love and romance between male characters. The term "Shōnen-ai" is being phased out in Japan due to its other meaning of pederasty, and is being replaced by the term "Boys Love" (BL). An example of this style is Loveless.
