From Eroica With Love

From Eroica With Love, or Eroica Yori Ai Wo Komete, is a shoujo manga written and drawn by Yasuko Aoike since 1978. The series revolves around the adventures of Klaus Heinz von dem Eberbach, an uptight and homophobic NATO major, and Dorian Red Gloria, an openly gay English lord who delights in bothering Klaus. Dorian is also an art thief, known as Eroica, and states in the first volume that he makes it his purpose to pursue and capture beautiful things...and people. He says that he is in love with Klaus and flirts with him incessantly, much to Klaus's consternation.

Also featured are Dorian's gang of thieves--chiefly Mr. James (the clingy, wailing, tightfisted accountant), Bonham (Dorian's right hand man), and John Paul (who only appears occasionally, and whose name changes from time to time). Dorian and his gang are based on the band Led Zeppelin, of which Yasuko Aoike is a fan.

Klaus's boss (the Chief), his butler, and his subordinates also appear frequently. The men working for Klaus are known as the Alphabets; A, B, G, and Z appear more often than the others. A is in charge of the Alphabets, B is generally portrayed as sort of a bumbling clown, G enjoys crossdressing, and Z is a young agent who hero-worships Klaus. Aoike has said that Klaus is based on aspects of her own personality, and she seems to have developed a crush on him.

The series is generally comedic, although it involves a great deal of violence, theft, and bizarre international incidents. Much of it spoofs James Bond-type stories (hence the title). Eroica has an active and growing fanbase; googling the title will lead to sites with additional information.

From Eroica With Love is now being translated into English by CMX, a division of DC Comics.

From First to Last

First I have to correct many of you, especially Jessi. The band consists of
Sonny Moore- Lead Vocals
Matthew Good- Vocals, Lead Guitar
Travis Richter- Screaming, Rhthym Guitar
Derek Bloom- Drums
They no longer have bass player Jon Weisberg. Jon said on fftl.net's message board that he will be filing a lawsuit against the band for lost monies. He is now in a band called The Tragic. Sonny is 17, his b-day is on Jan 15, 1988, Matt is 21, hid b-day is Feb 11, 1984. Travis is 24, his b-day is Oct 3, 1981. And Derek is also 24, his -day is Jan 30, 1981. They mainly describe themselves as anything you call them. The lyric's for "Ride the Wings of Pestilence" are:
I'LL be hiding in the shadows
I'LL be waiting in the dark
they are not
I'M waiting in the shadows
I'M waiting in the dark.
If you look at Dear Diary you can see it. Sonny is originally from Los Angeles, California. Matt is from Vancouver, Cananda. Travis is the one from Georgia. And Derek is from Seattle, Washington. Thier new album which will be released March 21, 2006 is titled "Heroine". And it will not be released late fall/early winter. But during spring. Aesthetic is just a EP, but Dear Diary is their first official album. Now all the mistakes are corrected. And their were a lot of mistakes from Jessi.

From First To Last are the greatest most talented band ever! Their lyric's are strong, while their music is powerful! FFTL Rox my Sox!

From Dusk Till Dawn

A date in which the other person seems normal, but turns out to be completely psycho once you get them into bed, but you stay the whole night anyway. Named after the Rodriguez/Tarantino movie that starts normally, but turns bat-shit insane half way through.

"Hey dude, how'd your date with Laura go last night?"
"It was a total From Dusk Till Dawn."

From First to Last

Fucking godly "screamo" band. They have 2 singers and 3 screamers. Their debut album is incredible. "Dear Diary, My Teenage Angst Has a Body Count"

I'll be hiding in the shadows
I'll be waiting in the dark
to drive this blade straight through your heart
I'll drag your body to the car
as blood races down my arm
I think everyone will wonder where you are

from scratch

cooking without any ingredients mixed before buying them, but rather buying each ingredient individually

How do I make a banana cream pie from scratch?

from fresh to hesh

In the skateboarding world. The transformation of someones style/attitude/clothing from a hiphop-oriented, slightly bling to a more out of style, 'I don't give a fuck'-approach.
If done by a professional skateboarder this is sometimes viewed as a marketing decision. However personal changes are probably a more important reason.
The opposite direction is also imaginable.

See also fresh, hesh.

"Hey Chris, who's that guy in your video part with the bald head, baggy jeans and the white shirt?"

Chris: "That's me. It's footage from last year, before I transformed from fresh to hesh."

From Hell

A phrase taken from the last of the three letters sent to Scotland Yard police from the infamous serial killer "Jack the Ripper." It is especially famous for its gruesome contents: a letter to the police chief and half of a kidney of one of his victims (the letter claims he ate the other half).

The text of the letter reads:

From hell.
