To win you have to join my mailing list. (don't worry I don't send emails that much and I will never ever never ever give away the mailing list it's all encrypted and secured). You can even laugh at my emails. I send everything in ASCII text since I haven't mastered the art of sending .html enriched emails without having them stripped.

If you already have joined you need not do anything. The drawing will be on Saturday May 24th by the cats. ... I think I might even video tape them drawing the names.

The album will be released in exactly 7 days and 2 hours from now. This definitely is the longest time from when I received the shipment of manufactured Cd's to the actual release. Which is nice because I was able to get them all in stores prior to the release date. I only wish I had a sequence of shows to line up with that but alas I don't have a booking team assembled for that yet.

My left ear still has been plugged up since last week. I finally went to the doctors and I was hoping it was plugged up by a spider. Alas it was not but I have an infection. So I am taking antibiotics again. I am allergic to penicillin and when I picked up the prescription the pharmacist pulled me aside and said "now there it's possible that you might get an reaction to this if you are allergic to penicillin." I looked at her as if someone told me I had to ski off a cliff. "But don't worry I am sure you will be fine". I have taken one pill and I am typing so I guess I am ok.

Still I can't wait to be able to fully hear again. I tried singing yesterday and it sounded like I was singing through a paper bag.

Yesterday I had seen "The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian". I liked it better than the first film. Minotaurs and centaurs fighting against humans! What can make it better? (yes I know monkeys!) It was entertaining and reminded me of one of the films from Lord Of The Rings fight sequences. Still if you like that genre of films you will love it.

I also watched Eagle Vs. Shark which was a cute comedy set in New Zealand. It reminded me a lot of Napolean Dynamite but from a more grownup perspective. I think the male character Jarod played by
Jemaine Clement was almost an exact clone of Napolean Dynamite except with terrible qualities.

I talked to Jim in LA and he said he is still in the works of doing a music video for "Decayed Events" in June. So I am rather excited to see what he comes up with. Anything to replace my previous video for it.
