I think I deserve a t-shirt for that! I'd like to say the same for you, but I have been doing alot of work with the mentally challenged, so I find Obama supporters everyday. Ok ok, that was below the belt, but funny. I think.

And my friend, no matter what happens in the election, I am going to reach right across that isle and show my support to the left by continuing to hold a spot for "Olympic Stadium" on my playlist.

Alas my Liberal friend, the time is nigh. The eleventh hour.
What the hell does that even mean, the eleventh hour?

hey foggers!

laid out w/the album and a pair of headphones last night...and a couple times, right before I think somebody's going to ask me what time it really is, these big and spacey guitars pop up in the headphones, very smooth. can't remember the name of the tune, s'instrumental in the middle, esp. like that one a lot. i could compare some songs/sounds to other bands, but that's so '99.

all in all, real good job folks. will try to make it out for the show...come see me butcher T.

Eric...I love this record so much that it has been the wakeup disc in my cd alarm clock for the last month and, even after a month of waking up to it everyday at 6:30 am, I still love it and look forward to it each morning. Thank you.
