maybe I am a busy guy.
maybe I do have a lot of energy.
but maybe i don't five a fuck what the weird meme is going on today.

i re-did the disk art for "No Standard Model" and while it's still not available for download, the price is today's date, which I find pretty ironic. Also all the songs might sound a little better. Sorry Riot, but hey... PM me if it sucks... idk.

i started putting together a 3-disk retrospective box set of my early material. i have little intention of selling it. so you might see a lot of that here. yay.

3 or 4 books being written concurrently, all fiction. 3 of them are outstanding projects: 1) "Infinity" - a collaboration with best friend concerning a science team discovering the afterlife, then going there - to a world of pure imagination where all is light and possible; 2) "life is a temporary position" - an immortal man discovers the truths of our world and his own life in a hilarious tale of shitty jobs, women, the seedy underbelly of the black market and corporate America, and life on Earth in general (hey check this out, I posted the 1st chapter of this one on Facebook, with more to come!); 3) probably entitled "Paranoid Monkey" or something like that, possibly "Redhibitory Devolution" if I'm feeling saucy about it - this is a re-imagining of my very very first full-length novel, a rock starlet named Ruth Pine begins slipping through parallel realities, and must fight her way back in order to carry out the existential mission of a lifetime... of all our lifetimes.
The fourth book is just some short stories, all using pre-existing characters (so to speak), so we'll see how that's cookin' in a little while. Stephen from Godlings, the whole crew from "Lovers of Life" in the collection Ten Pieces, and more! More characters from shit no one's actually read.

Oh, and also I want to thank all the veterans today for bravely defending our freedoms. i just hope we can all look forward to a day when violence isn't believed to be necessary to protect those freedoms.
