Free Comic Book Day

Postby oro! » Sat May 07, 2005 3:46 pm

So, today was the day when you could go to a participating comic shop and get free comics. I drove all the way to a different city to get them. It was great, but, being free they didn't last. Luckily i saw a trigun animanga for twenty five cents and it was all better. I personally don't like the real manga, so ya know... :drool: :jump:

--What stores!?
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Hastings did that. I missed out on the Star Wars one :waah!:
A nightingale in a golden cage
That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

Sorry guys. I shoulda posted on friday. Don't kill me or anything...there will be one next year. On the website http://www.freecomicbookday.com, it showed which ones near you would be participating. Guess it won't help now... but the free comic books were really thin anyway. They didn't have the ronin one! I so wanted that!
So don't do this/ :hits_self :bang:
It'll be okay/
too bad you had to miss/
that wonderful, wonderful day/
there's always next year/
Let no one ph33r!/

Secret:

Oro!Girl7 has a crush on Vash and Wolfwood. :evil: *runs*
Heart of Sword's Rhapsody

Money, get away
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay
And all and all you're just another brick in the wall
Shoutin’ in the street gonna take on the world some day
But Bismallah will not let me go
Because I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
Bright eyes burning like fire
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids

Who will love a little Sparrow
Who's traveled far and cries for rest
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all
And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you!
