About to pack up the laptop in preperation for pre-dawn trip to the airport to be off to Baton Rouge for what should be a nice 4th of July and a wedding. Internet access is a bit shaky, as I'm not even entirely certain where I'll be sleeping any given night. So bearing that in might, a bit of late-night, vicodin perscription-powered bullshit. Picked up an issue of Alternative Press for the first time in years as a prospective bit of plane reading. Had a thing on the cover... MORE
