    I just introduced an overall non-friend to Red Fang ans Iced Earth. He's definitely intrigued, and with any luck, he'll be hooked within the next few days

    How could he not? :)

    And yeah - the money will be handy for the cruise. And with the failing Aussie dollar, the fact that the win was in US Dollars is even better.

    I went to Tallinn on Friday for a day trip (about seven hours of time on land) with some friends. We went to the Tallinn maritime museum, which was a lot of fun. There's an old submarine (EML Lembit) where you can go inside, a M2 Browning simulator and a flight simulator and bunch of other stuff. And a bar where we had some beers. :beerwink: After that we went to the old town for some craft beers at Drink Bar and a meal at the medieval restaurant Olde Hansa before heading back to the harbour and a ferry to Helsinki. Tried about ten new beers and brought another ten back home to taste later.
    What an awesome day off of work.

    some of you might know if you've paid attention on Facebook, but most of you are unaware that I spent the summer working on a new TV show called Outsiders. Here's the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha126RODOOM

    Well, Friday night I went to New York for the world premier of the first episode (show will air in January on WGN and possibly simulcast on Netflix, 13 episodes) and the show was absolutely outstanding! I play a cousin of the mountain family, the Farrell clan, and I actually got a few great close ups, so I'm really geeked to be a part of this! This show is gonna be something special!

    Flights Booked! I used Aeroplan points thru Air Canada, and it was cheap. Arriving Feb 2 after 6pm local time.

    I'll be the guy wearing a black ,metal shirt at the airport.

    Hopefully this time, I won't leave my bank card in the ATM and have to use Am/Ex cash advances for the week :lol:

    My rejoice of the day is that I have one more day of work before heading to Warsaw for the weekend to see Delain, The Gentle Storm and Amberian Dawn. And beers, yes, there'll be beers! :givebeer:

    Back home after a weekend in Warsaw. Now I have to try and keep myself busy until the next trip (Eindhoven Metal Meeting in mid December). Ok, I'm going to Tallinn on Sunday. That almost counts as going abroad. :beerwink:

    I need to show this thread more love seeing how the now playing -thread has overtaken this as my most posts thread. So, yay, going to my mom's for the weekend, then Eindhoven Metal Meeting in two weeks, then the next weekend a friend from theU.S. is coming to Finland for Yule and we're headed to Tallinn for some fun times the weekend before Yule. What else? Going for a day-trip in Stockholm at the beginning of January with my mom. Going to Copenhagen in mid January. And then my birthday and 70k.

    Lots of stuff to rejoice about it seems. :beerwink:

    I just found a hidden anime gem on youtube and I've been having a blast ever since I found it. Anyone heard of Ghost Stories? An allegedly terrible anime released in Japan. When it made it to the US, the dubbers were told that the show was crap and were barely given any limitations on how they chose to dub it.
    So, take a terrible anime, no dubbing rules, and a group of dubbers who decided to give zero fucks about what they said, and the results are glorious. The English dub is basically a parody of the Japanese one. The dub literally saved the show.

    Check it out
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxJ4VWoeOzs

    Thank you Japan for giving us this terrible anime.

    Don't you love it? I say if a place can't operate without me for 3 days, when I get back, I'd like a bonus for cleaning up all the shit. :P

    I'm super happy because after years of having shit credit, today the bureaus are giving me birthday presents! I got a 40 point jump from one today and more to come, because a really nasty item is dropping off right now. Now I don't have to worry about shit like having to move and then being turned down from decent apartments. My current one sucks because I just went with a guy who doesn't check, like, anything.

    Of course I'm still unemployed, but I'm still pretty damn well off compared to a few years ago. I have a career now, okay credit, my student loan isn't completely fucked, and I have my amazing dog and have met a lot of really cool people. Just since 2014, I've been to six foreign countries: Canada (haha, but really), Spain, France, Germany, Jamaica and Dominican Republic. I've visited Tempe, Fort Lauderdale and Baltimore. I've met people from all over the world. Before 2013, I'd never even flown in a plane or been outside of the country besides going to Toronto. I used to have to play games with my bills and cards just to eat and have a roof over my head.

    Hopefully lucky year 34 leads me to a new place in my career and a better place to live and continued enjoyment of travel and doggie companionship.

I have a career now, okay credit, my student loan isn't completely fucked, and I have my amazing dog and have met a lot of really cool people. Just since 2014, I've been to six foreign countries: Canada (haha, but really), Spain, France, Germany, Jamaica and Dominican Republic. I've visited Tempe, Fort Lauderdale and Baltimore. I've met people from all over the world. Before 2013, I'd never even flown in a plane or been outside of the country besides going to Toronto. I used to have to play games with my bills and cards just to eat and have a roof over my head.

    Hopefully lucky year 34 leads me to a new place in my career and a better place to live and continued enjoyment of travel and doggie companionship.


    Good for you! It's hard ( been there ---believe me) a huge accomplishment. You can have a beer on the Balcony Party :lol:

    YEAH !! The above was via a work-related comp from one of our vendors that is a huge multi-national IT firm hence the USD. VERY handy.

    My friends, the sneaky bastards that they are, threw me a surprise birthday party on Saturday. My birthday is on Thursday, and since I'm flying to Florida early on Saturday morning, last weekend was the last weekend before the trip. I was thinking of not doing anything and just rest before the trip and 70k, but apparently people thought I don't need any of that. :lol:
    I went to a friend's place for some nice afternoon beers and then he and his wife told me we should go to Nosturi, where Swallow the Sun would be playing later in the evening for a meet&greet in the lobby bar. As it turned out, there was no meet&greet, but a hell of a lot of my friends and family waiting. Nearly had a heart attack. :lol:
    As for Swallow the Sun, yes, saw their gig and Mikko and Markus played a short acoustic set at the party. And another good friend of mine (Mikko from Heathen Hoof) performed a Bathory song with Markus. Quite amazing.

    I guess now it's time to start to act my age and be an adult. Isn't that what's expected of old people? :beerwink:
