You're son comes from tubing at the lake and is telling tales of flying 10 feet into the air and your first response is to ask him if he remembered to shout "Bird Go" and the next is the image of Jinpei falling on the water skies.

... 50 percent of your dreams include a Gatchaman character in them sometimes being yourself that is impersonating him/her! ... every time that you encounter or hear the word "Eagle", "G-Force", etc (i.e. any word that is included in the series) or seems to be written like it, you actually stop from what you're doing as you get attracted to it thinking that it's referring to Gatchaman, and then get all grumpy because you discover that it wasn't so!

Exactly Met. I think it is very nice to finish a tough job and not only think "Its done." but also, "That was easier than I thought it was going to be." It is kind of like a pat on the back, which not enough people give to other people. I have it in my car because I hate driving in heavy traffic, when ever I start stressing out I can press the button and it makes me feel I can do it. Actually now I do not really need to press it, but looking at the button is enough.

I resemble that remark! Whats worse, is I live in a tourist area where people consistently do 10 to 20 mph below the speed limit and then look at me like I'm rude/crazy/etc when I ride their a$$ until it is safe to pass. Like it's my fault they don't know the speed limit or how to use pull outs or that I learned to drive from watching a cartoon character (although the Dukes of Hazzard may have influenced me, too).

I was watching the That's 70's Show last night and remembered back when the BotP comic first came out, Wizard magaziine had a casting call for a movie and had Ashton Kuchner (forgive my spelling) as Jason. So even though his character Kelso was an idiot, I could see Eric as Mark, Kelso as Jason, Hyde as Tiny and Fezz as Keyop. The problem is the girls. Donna is with Eric, but is a redhead and later a blonde. Jackie is the brunett, but she's with Kelso and then Hyde. I guess Jackie could be Princess but who would Donna be?

And say that some time ago I didn't even know that there were other people that were Gatchaman fans like me, but this one regarding the tattoo exceeds them all! I love art and I regard tattooing as an art also! I don't know if I have to envy this person or if I have to never follow that route but at least, if I were to have a Gatchaman tattoo, I would have only opted for the logo or for a phoenix one just not to exagerate things! I see some courage there!

My lack of tattoos has more to do with my commitment issues than with fear of needles -I wouldn't want anything on me that I couldn't easily remove if I decided I didn't want it. I agree that whoever drew this one, though, has talent!

I agree LB, however, I'm told that Dermablend does a remarkable job of covering tattoos as it does the scars and birthmarks that it was designed to cover. My hesitancy comes from the fact that I'm trying to lose weight and don't want something that will be distorted if I lose as much as planned or gain any back. Although I don't think I'd have any character or name as a tat.

(such yummy thought for the rest of my day, and images of Joe with only his leather jacket on) Today while dressing a black coloured male (torso only, one of those well defined ones) manican We got busy so for most of the day he just had a heavy dark denim jacket on, and was left on the counter behind us. The other ladies didn't understand why I renamed him The Condor or got upset when they finally put a Tshirt on him or why I was looking for a feather to complete the display, strange a Japanes tourist just smiled at me when I tried to explain to the other women I worked with that it was not just Gatchaman ....But!

According to the Romanian to English dictionary it literally means "Chocolate with Milk" ... I presume it stands for "Milk Chocolate". But, I don't think this would hinder your imagination in any way! A Condor covered in milk chocolate would be as yummy! Littlewolf ... why not enjoying yourself in creating the whole team, certainly if you could have five mannequins at hand! Who knows what would be the public's reaction!

The though has crossed my mind, but they have me working in the surf wear section at the moment, and I do not have a mannequin that looks like Tiny. and apparently "striped jeans" are not in this season, or so the my supervisors said - alas, she seems a little reluctant to let me do the displays lately, something about 'it not being the correct image she would like to see for the shop' (a little to creative for her, they did have cloths on) a well! back to the Nicc and wiggles section in the next week I now have a mental image of Zoltar taking out the other brand names in the store screaming about sponsorship for his next meca - I think I am due for a holiday Smash

I bet Jun would be the one to shoot bird missiles at the mecha in that case!! I can even imagine their faces! But then, would it make sense?! I mean, mechas are supposed to kill anyone who gets into their way so it won't be of any use to advertise something which could not be enjoyed by those who wouldn't live enough to see and appreciate it!

That Joe candy made me wish to ignore my chocolate allergy. Joe, Yummmmm!! But I like breathing, so no Joe. My husband has lost so much weight with his diabetes we had to go clothes shopping yesterday. Your post, Littlewolf, reminds me. When at the mall, I always look into Abercrombe and Fitch (hope I spell that right) because they always have a poster of a good looking guy in either low slung pants or underwear in the entrance. In my twisted brain, I picture the guy as Jason with a shorter haircut. Could you imagine the Chief's reaction to Jason's summer job if it was modeling underwear?

no more afternoon naps! had a weird dream I was a new member, we were crawling through the grass spying on the goons getting ready to attack, when one of my sisters wanders up to say hi and have a chat (I love her but she is loud and likes to say "you know" and her voice get higher the more exited she gets) So..she starts rabbiting on about stuff, asking me why am I in the grass? who are these people I'm with? did one of them know he had a huge pimple on his back? (don't ask, even I can't figure that one out) and as for the goons, she said they were a little weird but they were helping her find her luggage she had lost (again, no idear), she waved to them in my dream saying hi and saying something about a party meanwhile i am trying to whisper to her to "shut up" she kept telling loudly she can't hear me and to speak up also somewere in this dream I had to delibrately crash my assigned vehicle, but had to go back for my keys (cause my house keys were on it) a nice little jumber and my container of cashew and almond, cause i has hungry The rest of the dream i can't remember and that's probalby a good thing, even for me it was a strange one.

Isn't it hilarious when you wake up after such dreams, and try to figure them out! LW ... if you have to cease taking afternoon naps in order not to have these strange dreams, then I have to totally quit sleeping as a rule, because mine are generally similar! Obviously, not always including Gatchaman, but anything I may encounter during my everyday life could become a potential background, or plot, together with all the other weird things which happen to decide to take part in it! Why not take just one other afternoon nap so as to perhaps have another opportunity to see where this dream could take you?!!

LW, I too have had similar dreams although not always Gatchaman related. I know the last one that was team related had me trying to hide from Galactor or Spectra waiting for the team to show up and in walks my Principal telling me she has ordered me a whole class set of brand new furniture. I remember saying "shhhh you have to be quiet the enemy are nearly here." And then when I look up I am overlooking the school playground field on a bright sunny day. The team no where in sight. I knew right then I had, yet again, lost my chance to meet Mark and give him a hug. *sigh*

You echoed my choice, LB! The red bird's thick eyebrows make a definite Ken for me, and the white bird's expression is so matching to the Owl's! And, you're right, CD! Could the pissed off bird be anybody else but Joe?!!
