It is a scientific fact that we are most creative during the first twenty minutes after waking up. It is a fact. I have read this in at least two of my Mom’s magazines (see: Redbook, July 2003). I believe this was discussed recently on the ‘Diamond’ David Lee Roth morning radio show as well. This, however, remains unconfirmed as neither myself nor any living human has actually listened to his radio show.

Walter, you can’t do that. These

And you know Smokey has emotional
problems!

WALTER
You mean–beyond pacifism?

DUDE
He’s fragile, man! He’s very fragile!

It is almost three days since the new website was launched. Soon it will be one whole week, and then the launch will officially be something of the past. You see, using the “Freichenrichter Temporal Derivative Mode Theorum” one can accurately place all sorts of events in their proper temporal dimension- past, not so distanst past, just before, just now, present, in a little bit, soon, future. It’s fun! Take a look at some of the things I’ve discovered in the past two weeks by fooling around with the theorum:

That is French for the German word for ‘welcome’. It is rarely used, so it may look unfamiliar to any of you French and German speaking viewers, but I assure you it is not made up.

Anyway, welcome to our new “blog” thing. We’re new to this, but we’re gonna give it a try. Keep checking in, and you just might see some cool content from the band. Maybe some updates from particular band members about new hair products we are trying out, our favorite power tubes and strings, simple recipes for breaded chicken breast (or tofurkey for our vegan friends), and maybe a poem and/or joke/anecdote. It is a very exciting time to be on our website! Tell you friends!!

Stay tuned, and enjoy your day;)
peace
