I'm not so sure about these titles. I'm sure others will find some inspiration in them though.

trying to save the King a little time, I made a coverart.
Maybe someday I'll enter another fight solo.

I wish I was in, but I'll be in SF and then the mountains to ski a few days. Not that I'd do it otherwise, but I am juiced to be recording again.

@ KA: I sort of forgot about that whole affair. Thanks. Is it cool for me to edit and paste your work into my post, so it's up at the top?

so, is there really a 9 in the abbreviation of the client no. 9 fight.
my first fight was clause 5, sub-paragraph d), and when i abbreviated it: c5spd, it was changed to cfspd when it was posted.

good luck all.

I just posted some cover art for cn9; it's nothing special, but I'm feeling like I'm getting sicker rather than healthier, so this is probably it from me this week. Anybody who can do something better, pleeze do!

Here comes the spring break. Maybe I'll get enough inspiration from this to write some songs.

i'm now convinced that the person who makes up the titles lives in new york. my evidence: first, the two heath ledger references right after he croaked in new york, second, the governor of new york/whore reference, third, the fact that new yorkers invariably think they are the center of the universe and that everyone else in the country cares about what is happening there.

I kind of feel obligated to do Punctuation Island, because I somehow feel that I may have inspired it.
But Client No. 9 inspires me more. :wink:

On a whim, wrote a song for Punctuation Island. It was going to be a rap, but I decided that I can't rap so I slowed down the vocals to around 40%.

DISCLAIMER: Yes, this is my usual 'done-in-a-day' song. No, I wouldn't have sent it in if I didn't think it was good. No, I don't think it has a chance of winning, even if everyone else does Client No. 9 and I'm the only contestant for Punctuation Island. Also, there really seems to be nothing witty to say about Punctuation Island. Dot dot dot.

SO last night (Wednesday) I got a bunch of tracks started for my song, then tonight I had a long meeting with a contractor, and I thought, oh well, there's no way I can stay up to finish the song tonight (Wednesday). I was so relived to realise it wasn't due until Friday. YAY!

If I can get some shit together tonight, I'm in for Punctuation Island. Though I have a lot of burboun right now, and a day off tomorrow, so that is not all too likely.
