Still nothin'. What's going on?
If a Top Five list was to be compiled for the Cutest Animals in the World, it would be something like this: pandas, sheep, skunks, arctic foxes, and chickens. It's a list that's constantly being contended, of course, and there are several heavy-hitters that often stray into the ranks, like caribou, grizzly bears, and lions. But, no matter what anyone says, sheep are amazing. I have several sheep plushes, and they give me no end of huggable joy, with their rotund features and their… rotund features. I've actually spent the better part of this whole weekend watching this old 5-second video of a sheep crashing into a wall on repeat. It actually bounces off the wall. Bounces. Like someone throwing a plush into a wall. It's great.

Welcome to Shelf Life.

Like much of Viz's live action line, Ping Pong is very laid back, which is perfect for those lazy weekend days when you're too tired to go out. Of course, if you really want to slow things down, you can always check out Mushi-Shi.

Sometime in July, possibly at Anime Expo, I ed watching the trailer for an anime series during a that made me let out a loud guffaw. I hadn't been paying too much attention to the screen, as I was focused on writing up a report. I looked up, and the only thing I is seeing a giant phallus bearing down upon a very confused character.

That's it for now. Tune back next week for more hot anime ass action!

We've got a really interesting collection this week, which comes to us from Randall Miyashiro. Rather than dealing with the problem of ever-expanding shelves, he throws away all his DVD cases and puts the discs in binders. And, because he's really awesome, he pulled out all his discs and grouped them into 70-DVD sets. Oh my gosh.

Set 19

Some shots of his

And what better way to watch it all than this swanky tech set-up, flanked with models and some sweet speakers:

**Whew!**

Now that's what I call a collection.
