About Me

I like my music slow and movies slower, except for when I don't. I have one pet rat. He moved with me from Chicago to California. He's pretty old. 10/07/08 He died. My computer only runs in Safe Mode XP. I'm lying! I just got a new computer. The new computer was stolen from work, so I got another new computer! But then I got chicken soup in it. But it still works! Everything is fine! My hair is black now because we just did this thing. It went really well, thanks for asking! Phew, it's normal again. Now it's long! You'd never recognize me! I got lazy.

Citizens on Patrol , the Band That Could, and Did, and Will Again, is on myspace, here . Our legacy will never die (although, were you to join our mailing list, I guarantee nothing would happen). Yea, the Rock that Passeth Understanding lives on in the hearts and minds of those who have forged on.
Also, in our video. Here's our video:


Helpful Links:

I blog about video games and pop culture at Infinite Lives dot net . All my del.icio.us bookmarks automatically appear at my tumblr .

I'm actually not very good at making new friends on the internet. I think I probably ought to state this up front. If you are someone I already know, though, say hello!


What's the Haps!

This is where the twitter thing would go. :(

Here is music instead.


Also:

I should probably warn you that what follows is a lie:
