Patrick Ryan	Jun 15 2008 7:35 PM In anticipation of the release of my first album, No Fighting, on iTunes next month, I've just uploaded four new songs to my MySpace page that were all written this past spring, and all of which will appear on my forthcoming second album, Electromentalism, due in November 2008. I've enjoyed making these songs. They move me, body, soul, both. I hope that they can do the same for you. Thank you for listening. Peace, Patrick Ryan

CL Smooth	Dec 6 2007 11:19 PM a friend's buddy is missing. please be on the lookout and spread the word if possible. >>>> My friend's younger sister Nikki is missing. She went for a hike at Mt. Tam on Monday and has not been seen since. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. CLICK for KTVU News coverage CLICK for additional articles in the news --- Hi All, My sister -- Veronica Ruiz (sister of Maricris Ruiz) -- has been missing since Monday, December 3rd (perhaps you may have seen her story on the news lately). On that morning, she went for a run near her home in Mill Valley, possibly in or around Mt.Tam. Unfortunately, she never returned that day, nor has she been heard from since. The authorities and media were notified soon afer, which resulted in a massive search and rescue effort. Along with ten agencies (such as the sheriff, various police depts, special units, fired dept, feds, etc), family and friends participated in locating her, namely within the Mt. Tam vicinity close to her home. Trails were hiked and flyers were distributed in Mill Valley, Sausalito, Tiburon, and the surrounding area. Two sightings were combed thoroughly - First sighting Blithedale entrance at 11am and West Point Inn at 12pm. After two full days, the authorities have decided to indefinitely suspend their search efforts. Naturally, those closer to Nikki want nothing more than to continue the search. We have faith that she's out there and want nothing more than to see her return home safely. Therefore, we've decided to take it upon ourselves and organize our own search and rescue missio
Pres On	Dec 6 2007 1:50 AM Finally I can actually hear your tunes on the page now. No That's My Phone...Love it! Genius! Well, nearly. That's a heavy word. But I wouldn't go out of my way to specifically say you're Not a Genius either.

Ted	Sep 4 2007 11:11 PM I wanted to make a music page called "Dilletante." I didn't suppose that that was original, but... on my home page, immediately when I logged on, was an add for a band: "The Dilettantes." So now, I wanna make one called "Redundant." Which, of course, probably is.
