Most Definately Not A Thriller Night

The music world was rocked, today, when none other than the pop king himself, Michael Jackson, was taken from this world, courtesy of a cardiac arrest.

The 50-year-old pop icon was pronounced dead at 2:26PM Local time, at the UCLA Medical Centre in LA.

More details can be found here.

Bender says "We're Back, Baby!" again.

That's right, folks, according to a couple of sources, as of the ninth of June, 2009, Futurama is back in town!

It looks like Family Guy is not the only Fox show to get a resurrection, because Comedy Central has picked up 26 NEW episodes of Futurama, to be aired in the Fall of 2010.

What could be better?


...well, I suppose they could do the same to Firefly...

Intended Purposes

Well, I went back to the beginning of this blog - ie. the very first post - to find what I had originally intended to use this blog for.

For the most part, I've put Sonic Slam news, as well as any other site news I could scrape up. However, it seems I intended this to be used to talk about stuff that related to the different aspects of the site (at least as well as the site stuff).

So, I've decided to begin anew...sort of...from now on, I'm going to use this to talk about stuff like I had wanted to. I might even throw in a rant or two.

Mm-mm, b!%@#!!

Birthdays And Delays

Well, it was my birthday, yesterday - I turned 24, not that epic a number. More on that in my Myspace blog.

Sonic Slam could be better - I've been struggling with the strips - both with writing and creation, thereof - and instead of 180, it's only at 172. I'll have to step up the pace a lot if I'm to get to the big 2-0-0 by the end of June.

A Tyresome year

(From coramaximus.com)

Welcome to the year 2009 (I know it's February, just bare with me, here...) This year hopes to be a good year, but alas, another may go without realised dreams of being a tyre, as well as without being any good. There's nothing slated for semester 1, and I'm not sure I'll be ready for uni, come sem 2. Job-wise, I don't think I'll ever be ready, so yeah - I'm back to this.

AV In - To start with...Transformers 2. The first was awesome, and June will tell whether the 2nd lives up to expectations or succumbs to sequel syndrome. Then there's Futurama 4/4: Into The Wild Green Yonder, which hopefully, will be better than "Bender's Game", which was ok, at best.

Nothing else comes to mind, right now...

AV Out - Sonic Slam's at 160, I upgraded the coramaximus main page, last month...that's about it, unfortunately, unless I can think of something else to put up.

...and actually get myself to do it - oh, that would be the bee's knees, alright!

...mmmm...bee's knees...

TODAYS LINKS (WHY NOT?):

I just ate a grape and I might accidentally get killed

To 150, and beyond

Well, as you may or my not have (most likely not) noticed, Sonic Slam is at 150 comics...well, it was, as of early November, I updated with 5 more, yesterday. Here's 150, for your enjoyment...unless you've never read Sonic Slam before, in which case I recommend you start, here, at the crappy beginning. It gets better.

As for other things, I am planning a site 'upgrade', mainly the coramaximus main page. Hopefully, I'll be able to vitalise the site and...well, stuff will happen...

Here's to more...stuff...

The Road To 150

Well, there have been a string of Sonic Slam, updates, lately, and there's almost a 100% chance that it will get to 150 by the end of the year. Actually, #150 will probably be up by the end of October. Hopefully, I'll be able to boost to 200 by Mex's 6th...or 5th, depending on whether you count the year-long hiatus or not...

...oh, and that site I mentioned is online.

GOAL 2 COMPLETE

Ok, cool. With the latest comic up at this dumb site, I have finally (you know... after what...FIVE YEARS!!) gotten SonicJesus J. McSlamSauce up to 125. Go me, or something. SOMETHING!! (Ehh, whatever, nobody actually reads this, anyway...)

Now to just do something about #4 (since 3's already done, as you know... you don't? OMG, that's weird!). That site is a sort of joint project with a friend of mine, so it's not going to be so easy to put up. Collaboration is required, since it's the new sensation, these days. Newgrounds told me so, and it never lies unless I blam something, which I do, but that's not the point...

GOAL 1 COMPLETE

Well, I've finally brought back Sonic Slam, with a new comic you can read here, thus complying with goal number 1. I've also done #3 (have a look). Not sure if I'll be able to keep up a schedule, but here's hoping.

I'm not dead yet!

Okay, So I've Failed, Once Again...

Well, it seems as though I was unable to follow through with my promises. No comics up (I'm sorry), and I'm not sure If I'll update, ever again. A Tex-Mex mix of busyness and lack of motivation, as well as some other things......no, just the first two; has left me with little chance to do anything with the site. It's time to set some goals.

1) Sonic Slam will return by the end of the month - at least one comic

2) Sonic Slam will reach 125 by the...whatever birthday

3) The Mex site will be updated with the next comic. It will look slightly nicer.

4) There will be a new part of the site by the middle of the year (i.e before July)

I'm going to set myself to theses tasks, and even if I have to force myself to be motivated (or get someone to nag), I will do them

THEY SHALL BE DONE!

Finally, the Coz has come back to his blog!

Well, I haven't posted anything in well over a year. Ever since I put Sonic Slam on hiatus, I haven't had anything to write about, site-wise. If you want an everyday blog, check my Myspace one (I'll have a link to it on the right by the time anyone reads this...).

Well, good news - there's a more-than-50% chance that Sonic Slam will return. Since I'm a little pressed for ideas, it'll probably be a once-a-week thing, again, for a while.

Hey - it's better than nothing, right?

...right...?

Getting back on track...again

Well, the last month has been rough. I had a ton of hosting problems, and I fell behind on my comic duties. I've only now been able to start catching up, and I'm still a little behind. Once I can get myself on schedule, I can think about other things I should do with the site and such.

An Other Stuff!

Well, I've been a little busy over the last few days, handling the hosting of a couple of wikis. I agreed to take the Space Tree Wiki (for Ed Atlin's Space Tree) and the GEOweasel Wiki (for Niko Anesti's GEOweasel) , and setting them up and whatnot has taken a considerable amount of time - so much so that I have missed two strips of Sonic Slam. I'll just have to make up for them.

...Oh, and happy 9/11 or whatever...

And we're there!

Yes, as of the 1st, Sonic Slam has reached episode 100. Big celebrations, etc. Sonic Slam 101 will be up on Monday with a whole new look. The site may soon experience changes, but I haven't decided fully on those.

In other news, new content is under construction for the fanfiction section in the Coramaximus Dungeon. Stay tuned for that.

...I really need some more stuff to put here...

Nearing 100

Well, it's the end of the second last week before the 1-0-0 Friday. Let's see what I've done:
I've kept to schedule, rearranged my links, added an affiliate, worked on the new content to go in the fanfiction section, added this blog to the coramaximus.com mainpage...that's about it.

COUNTDOWN!

Ok, so week three of the SSS (Sonic Slam Schedule) is over. I think I'm good enough to guarantee a M-W-F update frequency. This well mean that Episode 100 will come out on the 1st of September (A Friday), and a good time will be had by all. 94 was put up, yesterday, so there's 6 left of the first 100, after which, there will be some changes to the comic layout, itself.

Gotta catch 'em all...up.

Well, the past week has been pretty good. Last Monday, I updated with six (that's right, 6!) Sonic Slam strips, catching up the five I had neglected, with another one for Monday. Since then, I've been able to keep up with the standard M-W-F schedule, and am currently up to episode 89.

I feel pretty good about that.

The Longest Week

Well, ok, so it's a bit later than I said it would be. I'm just now starting to get my head together (I hope). New Sonic Slam, and I may have some new content for my Fanfiction Section.

Coramaximus: Returner

Don't ask me where I got the title from, because I won't tell you.

...and I'll poke you until your eyes bleed out your butt...

...it takes quite a lot of poking...

Anyway, I'm back from that so-called vacation and, well, productivity has been...well, nil...which is about the average. I might get the next comics out this week sometime, then I'll see about resuming the schedule (if there ever was one) around next weekend.

Until then...

Party Time!

Ok, so last weekends was late, but at least I've updated two (I'm still to update the third). Also, the 26th (three days after Sonic's 15th, yes...) was Mex's Birthday. That's right - the site's been around for over three years, now, in some way or another. I felt like celebrating.

...there, I've celebrated...
