I’m getting to the point where if I don’t play out soon, I’m going to lose my stuff.

We had a pretty good run with Chum & The Oily Fish Bits – a run that lasted about as long as the name did!  A lot of laughs, and some pretty descent music.

I’m transitioning to a brand spanking new Macbook Pro and thought now was as good a time to do some housecleaning as ever! As I find some interesting nuggets, I’ll post them here:
