klotz - jared and angie were well when i saw them. as usual, they had about 50 unexpected things come up (including the death of jared's grandfather) in their final few weeks preparing to move to japan. but then again, what would life be without circumstances prevailing on the petty's? at least i got them to the airport on time.

hibbs - i would love to send you a cd of my most recent tunes. what's your mailing address? i'm not having much luck with the whole file share uploading thing. please tell me what you think once you give a listen.

to all - i'm finally getting around to getting my pro tools rig fixed. in case you hadn't heard me mention it before, my optical port had a little malfunction so i have to get that fixed so i can record 12 tracks at a time for drums (right now i'm down to 8) around xmas time when the drummer is in town for a few weeks. the hour draws near. klotz, can you make it here to record some paper thin tracks before thanksgiving?
