This weekend, though, they’re having a big ol’ 50 percent off sale, in effect through Sunday. (Use the coupon ‘spooky2010′.) Turns out several of the…

The final portion of the Weekend of Great Big Awesome
I would be quite remiss if I didn’t post about the fun , , , , and I have been having putting together the audio track for our contribution to the GBS contest in progress! And by “audio track” I mean “actual audio track”, not just whatever audio Dara’s digital camera might pick up. Dara’s…

There’s only one thing really that could have kept me from writing this up in a timely fashion–and that’s the simple fact that I’ve been working all weekend with on our entry for the Great Big Karaoke Contest!
