Just a few more days, then the SHIRTS GO UP!

About Me

I play drums. I'm on a mission to destroy you live. To show you things you thought not possible. To change your life. It's a good thing... By the way, for those who figure that this might not be my actual page, it is "Officially Sanctioned" by me. Meaning, I'm the only one who touches it. Hell, if this were actually a fan-page, it would probably be more updated than it is...By the way, it's pronounced "HO-glan", long 'o'. Like, "Yo, ho', go slow", Hoglan.I do have a question for many of you. Why do you send me friend requests, yet keep your profiles marked 'private'? I don't get that. (*Two weeks later*) Okay, maybe I should repeat that last question. WHY DO YOU SEND ME FRIEND REQUESTS, YET KEEP YOUR PROFILES MARKED 'PRIVATE'?! Hell, I'm surprised most of ya can read, 'cause a ton of ya sure can't spell. *Months and months later* Okay, I appreciate all the long-winded explanations of WHY your profiles are marked private, but I suppose that was more of a 'rhetorical rant' than anything. I'll still add ya, cuz I'm apparently a friend-whore like that. I do still mean the part about the abominable spelling tons of ya have, though. Sheesh, ding-dongs, spellcheck already. Also, the reason I don't answer alot of your questions is that alot of you have your profiles marked as to not be able to receive messages from those who are not your friends already. Think about that before you think me a dick for not responding.
