Sweep picking makes you a man

If only I could master the technique.

Tonight I got a nice surprise from an old friend of mine in Toronto whom I used to go out and get extremely drunk with every odd Friday. He sent me a small clip of a track he recorded and it had positively the most awesome rhythm (which he wrote). And at my request he was kind enough to extend it out by a couple of minutes and let me rip on it with my skills o' shred (such as they aren't). I'd put it up here but it'll have to wait until he re-masters the track. I'm not terribly happy with the quality of my track, but I'm too tired to care.

Yesterday I went to see Iron Man again, it was quite amusing even on the second run. I got to hang out with Ravuya and dcosborn and talk about that stupid fucking linux vs windows thread in the lounge among many other topics. Those kids sure are bright. Much brighter than I was at their age and much brighter than I currently am. Although dcosborn, you need to increase the volume on that voice of yours [grin], I'm old and deaf eh. I think I might have to hire Rav as my mechanic, he certainly knows (and cares to know) more about cars than I do.

I enjoyed getting together with both of you. We should do it again sometime; hopefully sooner than next year this time, IMHO.

I've lost my desire to encur wrath in the Linux/Windows thread. [wink] Some people have made some good points already.

OMG!!

LINUX SUCSK!!

Yeah it was fun man. We'll definitely get together again. It was a very active day for me (I rarely go out anywhere, I hate humanity). Lacey & I ended up getting our drink on at the Ship & Anchor with some other friends. So it looks like I got to booze out after all.

Yeah, let's do it again sometime soon. This time with Moe in tow.

As penance, he can watch us get our drink on.

Dang, I feel bad that I went hiking instead. This Saturday is out for me, and I think I might have something going on the one after that, but after that I don't think I'm booked.

I must admit, the ice caves that we hiked to were pretty dang cool, in a figurative sense.
