So I was looking around sites for anime pictures today and I stumbled across this scanlation of the classic kung-fu/historic drama of Sui-Tang Heroes Saga. Apparently, it's by a Chinese author (or at least the name is more Chinese than Japanese), though the art style is definitely based on Japanese manga.

That said, from what I read, I think I like this version better than most of the Chinese versions of Sui-Tang Heroes Saga. For one thing, Li Shimin is the main character here rather than Qin Shubao, who was the lead role in the original novel and thus the later TV adaptations. And of course, I have a lot of interest in Li Shimin, so of course I like seeing more stories of him, even under manga-fied "artistic license".

Hm...I should put up the final paper I did on Li Shimin for my history term paper last semester (yes the one that I started at like 1 in the morning the day it's due and still got an A on)...

Looks like I rejoiced too soon about getting my computer working/installed again. Not a day later, my wireless goes kaput. And it's a problem that's happened before - that is, the darned thing works for every computer in the house *except* mine. Uninstalling and reinstalling it doesn't seem to work, and seems to randomly change some Windows setting every time we try something.

So now I can only access internet via my laptop again. No access to my computer unless I want to write data to CD and then bring it over to laptop and vice-versa... hella hassle. I should invest in a simple USB compact flash device for more convenience in moving files, now that floppy disks and zip disks are obsolete and CD-R's are a hassle to accumulate unless I want to keep the data on CD.

Tomorrow, I'm going to try the WinXP repair from the installation disk and then reinstalling wireless again to see if that'll work. Otherwise, it looks like I'm going to have to reinstall the freaking Windows all over again and start over from scratch. Gyah!
