Turns out, Eric can't drum us through 'Don't Fear the Reaper.' But I can't sing us through Beck's 'E-Pro' on expert, either- failed out miserably. Odelay, motherfucker! Bah.

I did do the 90's marathon on expert with an average of 94%, so I got that going for me.

I really enjoy hearing about your RockBand enjoyment - probably because it's a rare six-degrees thing for me: I don't think you've met my daughter, but you at least know I have one, right? She babysits for the programmer behind Rock Band and Guitar Hero (practically a member of thee family, by now - I'll be sending them some Yuletide bakings).

In fact, the first time I ever heard of RockBand was when she spent a riotous weekend play-testing it w/ the programmer's kids - she was all set to go buy herself a TV & a game console....

That said, I've actually picked up more about it from you...

How are you, post-deer-hittage?

Which programmer? James Fleming?

Don't think so: I don't actually have that kind of personal information on them (she's in college in Boston, and sits for them on weekends, when she's not on RA duty.

I know that last Christmas, the guy gave everyone in his company their choice of a Les Paul or a Strat (*real* ones, ok?) and a Fender Twin Reverb (boy would I love to be on his gift-list?) I know this because Daughter went to the company party (& she doesn't know that much about amps, or guitar models).

But sorry - pretty sure "Fleming" is not the name (now, the widow next-door is named Fleming, but I'm fairly certain she's not a programmer of any kind)

I'm okay- thanks for asking. Was very shaken up, but it seems everyone was able to walk away from it, so I count my blessings.

Oh yeah- and glad you like my Rock Band posts. It seems frivolous and I wonder if my incessant posting about it gets old, but it's really fun!

That's what L. tells me.
