5 Year Old Metallica Fan
On the way to sign autographs tonight, I met a 5 year old girl with a Metallica shirt on... Justin and I thought that was hilarious... and assumed that she had never heard a Metallica song in her life... This was our conversation....
Justin: You like Metallica?
Girl: Yeah!
Justin: What's your favorite song?
Girl: "One"!
Justin: Oh my gosh! You really do like Metallica!
Me: Woah! Do you like "Enter Sandman"?
Girl: I don't think I know that one.....
Me: Oh man! It's on the black album... You need to check it out! Listen to "Enter Sandman" and "Nothing Else Matters".
Girl: Hmm... I'll have to check that out.
(Keep in mind... She's like 5, and she's talking like a 25 year old music critic)
(She pats my back, gestures to signing table)
Girl: Now... Don't you have some work to do?

Amazon Mp3 10 2010 Albums for $3.99 Each →
For the past couple of years, I’ve really appreciated buying music on Amazon MP3. It’s just as easy to use as iTunes, and it’s nearly always cheaper. They have tons of sales at $3.99, or $5.00…..  For instance, when our latest Hawk Nelson record came out (LiveLifeLoud), it was $3.99 for the first week on Amazon mp3. It’s $7.99 now, compared to $9.99 on iTunes.  ...

Christmas Dinner Traditions
So my family has never really done Turkey dinner for Christmas. We’ve usually done PIZZA! Pizza is easy, delicious, and let’s be honest, does anyone not like it?  Does your family have any slightly-off Christmas traditions like this?

Lunar Eclipse
I really wanted to see the total lunar eclipse tonight….. but these Tennessee clouds are going NOWHERE. I suppose I can settle for some photos I found online, and IMAGINE how cool it would have been.  Actually, the truth is, I went to bed kinda early, completely forgetting about the eclipse I had been so excited about earlier in the day….. and then I woke up at 4am and...

Answer!
Han Solo: [sounding official] Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal.
Voice: What happened?
Han Solo: [getting nervous] Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?
Voice: We're sending a squad up.
Han Solo: Uh, uh... negative, negative. We had a reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak, very dangerous.
Voice: Who is this? What's your operating number?
Han Solo: Uh...
[Han shoots the intercom]
Han Solo: [muttering] Boring conversation, anyway.
