A lot late*



But yeah, i'm sure people will forget soon enough. Whiskey has been MASSIVE for US exports over the past decade... if another brand takes America's favor over Beam/Makers Mark, it could hurt Beam's bottom line, but I'd imagine those brands would take forever to dent international sales.

My new album finally came out today... a year after trying to wrangle all those legendary players into one room and off tour for long enough to cut a full length album: Average Savage

Never heard your stuff before... pretty damn good man. not my main form of music, but the mix/vocals sounds great with speakers. I'd have to listen again with some headphones on to actually get into it more. seems to have a nice mix of what my untrained rock ear would say are some seattle rock and country influences.

After trying for a week ZMA is utter crap. I had trouble sleeping while taking it and I sleep like a baby usually, no anabolic gains either. Its cheap but a waste and I'd also woke up feeling like yesterday is overlapping into today.

Yeah you pretty much got it. All the guys are basically a blend of those things:

Neal Casal on guitar (Ryan Adams, Further, Chris Robinson, Hard Working Americans, Lucinda Williams)
Don Heffington on drums (Bob Dylan, Dwight Yoakam, Lucinda Williams)
Jesse Siebenberg on steel guitars (Supertramp, Lissie Maurus, Kenny Loggins)
Bob Glaub (Rod Stewart, Journey, John Lennon, Warren Zevon, Jackson Browne)
Dave Palmer (Fleetwood Mac, Fiona Apple, Chris Isaak, Seal, Goo Goo Dolls)

It helps more than it hurts, especially when I have to type work e-mails.

I turn off auto correct, but most of the time it actually helps me.

iPhone's useless for work emails... I gave up a long time ago. I only use it now for the biggest emergencies.

I agree with Slava too... Spell correction is both good and evil... Mostly evil.

What does your location Patas de perros means. not the spanish translation, but the actual meaning.

It means 'Dog Foot'... Or basically that you gotta be running the streets... You can't settle down.
"He's got the dog foot..." "Tienes pata de perro..." To be honest though, I've only heard it in Spanglish...
Mexican Grandmas used to say it... But it's older than that... I believe it's Native American rooted.
