I would like to state, clearly and for the record, that Bradon picked out [...]

Flexeril: good for relaxing my back after wrenching the hell out of it this morning, bad for leaving me coherent enough to post to the blog. Real post tomorrow.

My apologies, kids…not much of a post tonight. Tonight was…busy.

For those who have been asking, we have a very, very tentative date of either October 19 or 20, 2007. Don’t put it in a calendar, and don’t hold us to it. All dates subject to change, yadda yadda.
