Speaking of THE RYAN

The Ryan is about to get a big sack o' fun in the mail, with more to follow. I sent him FruityLoops and Acid Pro 3, if the samples disks are too scratched up for him to get any use from, I'll get him some new ones.
The last week or so I've been really grappling with the music, I sit down every night like "I'll try to pound something out in 15 minutes", but then it is suddenly 2 a.m., and I've got nothing to show for it except frustration and a totally lost night. But I think that maybe the struggle is the art. As cheesey as that sounds. The product is to help other people learn about how you see the world, and I really think the process is to help me learn how I see the world.
I try to think of everything in terms of how a ninja would do it. Ninjas went through long, long hours of getting cocnuts dropped on their chest before they were strong enough to avenge their brother's death, ninja style. This is the part where the old man drops the coconuts on you. Later will come the revenge.

p.s. my Papaw Jay is dying, I thought "Katie might care.." for some reason.
its not everyday that a man so old and grand begins to pass away. who is now left to crash into your parents' garage? and i feel bad for his lady friend. and for you if you're saddened by it. i've found the pain of losing a grandparent to be a slowly smoldering one. i almost cried while i was waiting to get a gas pump this afternoon simply because i thought about how gulity i feel for not having called my gramma more before she died.
