It was New Years Eve. Carla and I were in her basement finishing up the songs you hear posted on this page. It was Important to walk into 2008 with something. Anything to validate who we are, and why we are here. At the Zero Hour, we nailed in the last of the programming, sat back, and savored what (at the time) we considered a job well done.

Fast-forward to this September. In her living room, starting Monday, will be the first of her vocal recordings for the new album. As I updated our page with pix, and code, I realise what I have in her:

A dedicated Friend.

An Equal.

And the reason this thing even exists.

Guys, frankly, I'm very excited for this happening. As 2008 winds down from the shitty year it seems to have been for us all, I can only remember what rang in my ears last September...

"This is going to be The Best Year Ever!"

Anyway...

Usually, on MY blog, I end the thing by saying something rude, like, Piss Off, and such. But this bit of blog is just another reminder that this is only half mine. I have Others to consider. So consider this:

Maybe I was a year off.

This could be The Year.

In these sad and trying times, it's just too easy to be Dark, Tortured, and Morose.

Thank you for reading.
