Impromptu Taiko Trip


So I hope this isn't too late of notice, but I have a few friends coming up from my hometown this weekend (one of them should become a regular SPAMM member next year) and we plan to go to Taiko Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar. I figured it's been too long since I've had my fill of raw fish, and what better way to eat raw fish than with SPAMM.

If anyone would like to meet us at Taiko in Dubuque on Saturday night at 6:30pm, it should be good time. Also just because I am not really familiar with Taiko's, do we need a reservation or anything? Do they even take reservations? I know last time we had a large party go and got enough room for everyone, but that was at lunch. Lemme know what you think would work out best.

Also my apologies on not going at an earlier time, it seems my friends are leaving at 3:00pm and should get here around 5:00pm.

For those who do not know, here are the directions: Click meh.


As always just say if you want to go and if you can give people rides, I'll keep an updated list.
*Update* I kind of have a general idea who has and doesn't have a ride. Just lemme know if something is wrong. Also I believe Megaton is willing to drive some people there. Look at his post for details and ask him/let him know if you want a ride.

Going:
Vshadow Car(full):

  • Vshadow

  • and friends

Megacar:

  • Megaton

  • Adroit

Niehaus Car:

  • The Machine

  • Kelly


Needs ride:

Emergency LAN 2/6/10


The amount of LANnage that occured on 1/30 was not enough to saturate the hunger for LAN. Therefore, there will be an emergency LAN tomorrow starting probably at 1 P.M. at the SPAMMhaus. As with previous LANs at the SPAMM house, if you need a ride just stop by the SPAMMhaus. This LAN was decided upon 15 minutes ago at Taco Johns.

7:25 - Skip Beat
7:50 - Bubblegum Crisis 2040
8:15 - Excel Saga
8:30 - Square dance tournament
9:00 - Black Lagoon
9:25 - Spice and Wolf II
9:50 - Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
10:15 - Kara no Kyoukai, Garden of Sinners

7:00 - FMA:B
Image

Alphonse Elric is the Fullmetal Alchemist, named for his body of metal. He is tall, strong, and did I mention not shorter than a grain of rice.

7:25 - Skip Beat
Image

If she wasn't the main character she'd be the psycho ex.

Kyoko followed her true love and childhood friend Sho to Tokyo so she could help him reach his dream of becoming an idol. She cleans, cooks, works three jobs and does nothing for herself because she loves him so much, but gets nothing in return. Still, she remains by his side. But then one day she goes unannounced to his agency with a delivery, and overhears him talking about her; he reveals to his manager that he only took her with him as a maid, and that he doesn't care for her at all. Upon hearing this, Kyoko doesn't just sit around and cry. She cuts and dyes her hair, changes her clothes and attitude and thus begins her journey to join showbiz and have her revenge against Sho.

7:50 - BB Gun Crisis
Small caliber rounds are meant to be taken seriously. This is not the story of a girl who found a BB gun and conquered the whole world, and though she looked so badass in photographes she's actually


7:50 Bubblegum Crisis
Image

If I have my eclipse, there is no gum crisis. Wait, this is the title for a mecha?

After a mysterious earthquake levels Tokyo, Genom becomes a powerful influence providing their artificial organic lifeforms called Boomers to rebuild and act as a labor class to humanity. However, some of them occasionally run amok, and even the specially created AD Police are at a loss to stop them. Lina Yamazaki travels to Tokyo for employment but also hopes to join a vigilante force called the Knight Sabers, who pilot powered suits to destroy these rogue Boomers.

8:15 - Excel Saga
Image

Say what?

Hyperactive Excel does anything and everything to try to please her lord, Ilpalazzo, who wants to take over the planet. Excel's misadventures takes her and her partner, the ever-dying Hyatt, all over the world, meeting several strange people as they go. Everything is bizarre and goofy, as any kind of anime or entertainment genre gets mocked and spoofed.

8:30 - Square Dance

9:00 Black Lagoon
Image

This is clearly a mistake, Black Lagoon should never be on the schedule. Just talked about being on the schedule.

After years of threatening to put it on the schedule it is at last on the schedule. I personally expect Darker than Black to take over this coveted position in the future. Oh ya, about the show:
Okajima Rokuro is a Japanese businessman…in a town full of Japanese businessmen. His normal day consists of social drinking with clients and being kicked around by his bosses. He finally gets a break though, as he’s sent by his company to the tropical seas of Eastern China to deliver a disc…only his boat gets hijacked by a band of mercenaries that were hired to steal it. “Rock” (as he is newly dubbed by his captors) catches the interest of the only female merc “Revy” as she thinks he’s worth a ransom, taking him hostage. However, the disc turns out to be more trouble than its worth, and complicates things both for Rock, and the mercenaries known as Black Lagoon.

9:25 Spice and Wolf II
Image
Enough of SPAMM fails out as is, learn at least some economics in your 2nd extra semester
Continued from last semester, read that description you lazy bum.
Continuing where the first series left off, it follows Kraft Lawrence a experienced traveling merchant and his sharp tongued wolf god companion Holo on their journey to return to Holo's home to the north called Yoitsu. A tender relationship has blossomed between the characters, as they make deals, travel between cities, encounter religious fanatics or vice versa and mostly

9:50 Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
Image

What is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more.

Having recently moved to the rural village of Hinamizawa, Keiichi has befriended four girls—Rena, Mion, Satoko, and Rika—and joined their after school club. This leads into some nail biting after school shenanigans, as Keiici learns some important life lessons, not to judge a book by its cover, and that sometimes love hurts like a bat to the face.

10:15 Kara no Kyoukai
Image

Mystic eyes of Death, not Mystic eyes of Depth perception. I always mix them up to my optometrists' misfortunes.

Kara no Kyoukai graduates from the Holloween schedule to the full schedule, details at nine.
Ryougi Shiki is a girl who grew up in a family imbued with supernatural powers. In particular, certain members possess something close to dual personalities; the "male" and "female" sides, who are aware of each other, are both conscious, and essentially the same person with different qualities. This dual consciousness combined with her upbringing has led her to reject other human beings.
When she was in high school, she met a caring classmate, Kokutou Mikiya. Slowly, under his influence, Shiki begins to feel happiness in her life. However, that comes to an end when Mikiya becomes too close to her.

Fall Trip to Mitsuwa's in Chicago


It's that time again! This Saturday, SPAMM will be conducting a pilgrimage down to Chicago, where we will be visiting Mitsuwa's, a Japanese shopping center loaded full of good things, like a grocery store, book store, bakery, and a fairly complete food court. If there is enough interest (Dirk), we will conclude(crown) the trip with a visit to the always-delightful Gino's East Pizzaria, where you can get the most amazing pizza known to man that is unbeatable by anything available anywhere in Wisconsin.

For those of you who have not gone on a Chicago Mitsuwa's / Gino's East trip, before, the drive takes approximately 4-5 hours. Also, I would like to get another driver or two if possible, so volunteers are welcome, at this point.

Day : Saturday, December 5
Departure Time : 10 a.m.
Dinner at Gino's East : 6:00 p.m.

Drivers: Zachary Dickelman

The Zachary Dickelman Car
Passengers:
1)
2)
3)
4?)

If you would like to go, please shout out in this thread or sign the sign-up sheet that will be present in SPAMM, today.

Go with us, if to experience the wonders of overly-frivolous Japanese consumerism, or even if you just need to get your inch of meat.
