I might be old, but dammit, I ROCK!
Yes, I just completed the solo guitar tour on Rock Band, and even though I was only playing on medium, it feels pretty freaking awesome. My wife (goddess!) sprung for an Xbox 360, and my mother-in-law (what a sweetie) sent me Rock Band, and I’ve basically been […]

Special thanks to Martin, Cory, Dave, and Matt, for taking me out for one last Friday beer night at Der Braumeister. It is much appreciated.

I am not allowed to stay up drinking with gr0m1t.

Mood:hung over

After a long, long Friday night of staying up burning CDs for the rental car, and a long, long Saturday of airplanes, airports and power naps, we arrived in safely in Seattle and found our way to wolffire and gr0m1t’s (very lovely) house without incident.

I started putting together a simple page last night […]
