Slowing Down

Yes, I know, the posts have been less frequent here. This is due to two things:

1) I'm actually running out of stuff, at least the good stuff. I do still have a few things so I will continue to post for a while.
2) I've been super busy lately. My wife and I are expecting our first child in February and we've been working hard the last month to get the house ready for our new arrival. As such, most of my time has been spent cleaning, painting, etc.

Given both of these things I don't expect that I'll be able to run this blog much past the end of 2007. That's how things look as of right now, anyway.

If anyone is interested in helping out let me know. It'd be nice to have another contributor.

As always, enjoy the music, support the artist, and let me know what you think (leave a comment!).
