2010 has arrived, vacations are (almost) all over, the economy is still down. Surveys show the most desired gift in 2009 was cash, so in response to that I have a question for ya:

But if you go to FILL IN THE BASS on the 21st of August, you'll know. It's about time to show these motherfuckers that it's true and not just a hobby, which... it is, but I digress.
We have been working very VERY hard on this! Our "committee" has gone from six people huddled over drinks at the Medusa… Read More
