- Got some neat things
for you this weekend. I went on an encoding spree and made MPEG versions
of two kinda-sorta-not-too old Music Videos
(I made 'em for "Break Me: V.2", and "He's So Shy:
V.2"). So, if you despise RealVideo as much as me and want nice
quality versions of these videos, download 'em while ya can.
- My 21st birthday was last week (whoa, I'm getting too old for this!
:P), so I made some changes to the FAQ and
About Me sections. I also updated
my list of "Anime I've Seen" on both of those pages.
- I also went on a fixing spree and got both the DBZ
Wall Murals and Trunks Cels
pages working again!
Those can be found in the Images section.
** IMPORTANT **
- In site news, I hope hope HOPE to have the ToT moved to www.templeotrunks.com
in the extremely near future, as in the next week, if things work
out the way I want them to. Feel free to go to the URL and bookmark
it and remember it, but for now, there ain't nothing there. Just know
that URL for when it comes time for me to move because I don't know
how long this current site will be around to show that I have moved
to www.templeotrunks.com.
Please get the word out that this place is gonna relocate there. Other
sites on dbcollection.com might be moving too, so I'll keep ya posted
on that situation.

- Holy crap, I come back to New Jersey and it all decides to snow,
ice, and all this other crazy shiznit. I must say, my vacation in
Florida was awesome. I was glad to go some place warm for New Year's
for a change. :P I went para-sailing, went to the lovely Everglades,
and did some other fun things, such as got half my blood sucked outta
me by mosquitos. Mike and I might make some media on the trip, but
thanks to the new job we just started today at our university (gotsa
make the big money!), I'm not sure if we'll be able to. Well, I'm
just stopping by to say that I'm back and all in one piece (for the
most part....heh..). I have some stuff I still need to edit around
here, so I hope to get that done in the coming weeks. Here's to a
happy birthday for Savage
Z, which has now been around for one year (wow, feels like
just yesterday), and Cat at Goku
Central made a neat Trigun music video, although I don't know
when she'll officially post it.
- Wow, I actually felt
like updating with something today. I just remembered that my pal
Leda-chan had sent me the second half of a Trunks Cartoon she had
made, so I figured I'd post it! You can find it on Page
2 of the Trunks Cartoons section.
It's the continuation of the saga of what caused Bra's pregnancy.
Hope ya like it!
- I've updated the Trunks
Voice Actor Information page (located in the Trunks
Info section) with some new info on the English actors.
- While I'm on a roll,
I went and made some silly little items for a little humor page that's
been highly neglected around these parts. As quite possibly the lamest
section on this site, I've added two new piccies to Trunks
Food. Life don't get much dumber than this. :P

- Heylo, peeps. Hope you all had an excellent holiday! I for one had
a marvelous one, and it's only just beginning! I got lots o' neat
stuff, like the Cowboy Bebop DVD boxed set, Lain DVD boxed set, both
Fushigi Yuugi DVD boxed sets, other random anime DVDs, concert DVDs,
other fun tapes, a new desk chair, and much more! Basically, I got
a lot of viewing material. Ohhh, my head explodes! Well, I'm just
popping in to say that from tomorrow 'till next Saturday, I won't
be around, as I will be vacationing with my boyfriend Mike (that bastard
EX, hehehe) and his family. Anything to get out of this hella cold
weather will be great! So, I won't be around to answer any e-mails
or do site stuff 'till then. I hope to come back with fun stories
and such! And if I don't come back...well...won't that just suck.
Until then, farewell, and Happy New Year from the ToT!
And in case you're wondering, I did do some work around here. :) All
of my old, and highly shitty music videos are back up in the Archived
Music Videos section, I made some new MPEG versions of some
newer Music Videos, and all the
sub-sections are back up on the main page. have fun!

- Although this is coming from me rather late, I figured it's better
late than never! Today, I've posted the ToT annual batch of DBZ winter
holiday-related fanfics, images, stories, songs, poems, etc! You can
find them on the DBZ Winter Holiday Stuff
page. I'll only have this up for a few days, so enjoy these items
while you still can. Have fun!
As for the site itself,
here are some things I still have to do: 1) add the sub-sections to
the main page, 2) fix links on the archived music videos page, 3)
decide what to do about movie clips. That's on my personal list of
things to do in the next couple o' days. Catch you laters!

- You may have convinced yourself it was all over...you may have thought
that it was dead...or maybe you thought it was just getting drunk
in Tiajuana...BUT YOU WERE DEAD WRONG! I'm pleased to announce that
the Temple O' Trunks is now officially back and fully operational!
Uploading the 5500+ files only took a few hours, surprising enough
(fast connections = god-like power), and that makes me regret that
I did not put this all back up sooner. Despite that, this hiatus from
the site was a much needed break. I was able to concentrate more on
school (3rd year of college can be a bitch goddess!), and as a result,
I racked in 4 As and lord-knows-what in my god-awful Java programming
class. Now that the Fall semester is over, I'm ready to come back
to the site, and I simply began by putting it all back up again. As
much as I would have liked to have come back with my new location,
the new servers still ain't ready yet, and I have no idea when I can
move in. So I figured I should just stay put for the time being. Hope
you can deal with that. ^_- I want to thank the majority of you who
have been patient with my delay on coming back to the site. I could
have done so quickly, but when it comes down to it.. I *really* needed
to give this thing a rest. So, thanks for sticking around this long,
and I hope you'll continue to be a part of this in the future. To
the rest of you whiny kids who couldn't get a grip on reality and
just be patient with the site changes...screw you. Screw you profusely!
*ahem* Ahh, that felt good. As far as I know, everything uploaded
back up just dandy. However, if you notice large gaps of missing content
(i.e- entire pages with no working images, etc.) please let me know.
But, don't e-mail if there's just one little link or image that isn't
working some where, cuz chances are I don't have that file any more.
I still have some minor adjustments to make here and there, so please
bear with me (most notably on the old music video archives, ugg...what
crap. Don't even bother looking!) . I hope you will have fun with
everything that is back up again! I plan on making an update of the
annual, seasonal kind tomorrow, so stay tuned. Heh... I don't know
what else I can say other than thanks for being such great fans, and
I hope you'll be enjoying the site again!

- I'm back today to bring you more news. This time, it's Trunks related!
Eric Johnson, the voice of Future Trunks, tells me that he has changed
his stage name to "Eric Vale". What's the reason behind
this? Read on, bub:
"I've taken
a stage name because some guy on the show Smallville joined the
union, SAG, with my real name. So, since there can't be more than
one of the same name in the union... And since I hope to join
the union someday... I thought I'd just nip it in the bud and
change it now. New name is Eric Vale."
So, that's that! You
heard it here. As you may or may not know, there's a guy on Smallville
that also has the name "Eric Johnson," so our Eric's gone
ahead and given himself a stage name. Pretty freaky, eh? I'll add
this info to the "Trunks Voice Actor Info" section as soon
as all my files are back up.

- Howdy you little cuties, you! I hope everyone out there in web land
is doing OK. I'm returning to my old stomping ground bearing news!
Yes news, from me! Wow, I feel hella special since some really coo'
and pertinent information has been bestowed upon my little self. A
reliable source who prefers to remain anonymous tells me that come
the holidays, script writing will begin on DBGT. After that, the show
is projected to begin production in the early spring. That's all I
have for now, but if I get more tidbits, I'll post 'em here!
OK, time for my report on the status of the ToT. Obviously, it ain't
moved yet. I'm thinking I'll just restore the site at it's current
location, and when the servers are ready for me to move in, I'll just
take it from there. So my holiday gift from me to you all will hopefully
be the restoration of this monster! On a very related note, my main
man Mike's site, Daizenshuu
EX (which current forwards to the main pokeball.net home page)
should also be back in the near future.
With semester finals in full swing, I've been mad crazy stupid busy.
But, like I always say, I'm constantly working on some project or
another. That said, expect some new shiznit from me soon. I'm sure
I'll make at least one more update in the next few days, so I hope
you'll stay tuned, cuz the ToT comin' home for the holidays!
Wednesday, 11/21/01
- Happy almost Turkey Day! Looking forward to a small break? I sure
hope so. It's sure been awhile since I updated this thing. The server
I'm moving to is still being renovated. I'm told the moving day is
going to be December 1, but we'll see. Despite not having updated,
I am *always* working on new projects. Today, I'll post some of those
completed items here on the site! I've got two new music videos for
you to watch, one of which is a new DBZ video! Oh my! The first video
is something I finished last week. I used the Kimagure Orange Road
movie, and a song from an 80s cartoon show, Jem. Odd combination,
eh? If you haven't seen KOR before, I really, really recommend it.
It will be available on DVD in February, too! Anywho, the video is
all about a girl named Hikaru who loves to dance and is trying out
for a musical audition. Her best friend Madoka is also in the video,
shown playing the piano, as she gives mental support for her friend.
That's a rather simplified descrption of the video, so if you'd like
to get more in-depth info on this video,
click here. The video is called "When
It's Only Me and the Music", and it was just a fun lil'
video I did mainly for my own amusement.
The next video is something
I'm extremely proud of, heheh, although I'm not sure if I should be.
^^;; I completed it last night at 3:40 am (I just *had* to finish
it, or I wouldn't sleep!), and I've been working on it for the last
few days. How can I describe what this video is about, hmm...well,
to put it simply: this video is parody of everything that sucks about
DBZ music videos, and all of its stereotypes, all in one package!
It's in the form of a home shopping TV show, so it has some live action
footage, something I've never done (or seen) before in an anime music
video. Not only that, but it features 3 songs (to all those who ever
asked me to make a Limp Bizkit video...you asked for it! HA!). Click
here if you wanna read about all of the fun facts relating
to this music video. Or if you want, just go straight ahead and download
my "All-Purpose
DBZ Music Video (How To Make a Bad One)". I really hope
you enjoy this, as well as my other new video, because this was a
blast to make. I at least hope it entertains you. (Note- both videos
are in MPEG format [no exceptions. I ain't making RealVideo format
clips anymore! They look shitty!], and are moderate file sizes, but
have very good video quality.) See y'all soon!
For all those who don't
bother to read my updates on the main page- I know my links aren't
working! I took them down on purpose. My site will be moved soon.
Please be patient. I've been getting some pretty rude e-mails from
people who just can't wait a few weeks for a web site to go back up.
There are more important things to worry about in life, so don't worry
about how long it takes me to get this shizzat all moved. :P
