...Rise, fall, down, rise again...

IPOMers!

it's been too long. Sorry, I was in the US for nearly two months, and then upon getting back, I had a lot to deal with. I'm mostly caught up though!

I will be travelling a lot in 2010, and in fact, I just got back from Athens, Greece, which was a great trip!

I have a lot on my plate for 2010, but I'm going to do my best to continue to carve out time for IPOM improvments. I have a lot of really awesome ideas, so hopefully I'll find the time to implement them.

The holidays treated me well. I went to visit my folks and my old friends in Florida for the first time in almost 2 years, and that was great. I also got to spend 2 weeks in Los Angeles hanging out with all of my friends out there as well. All in all, lots of fun. But now it's back to work!

BTW, I've started reading Paul Stenning's Metallica: All That Matters, and it's a fantastic read. If I'm learning things about the band, you know it's good. What's more, it's not just a big book of facts - it's actually a really captivating narative of the life of the people in and around Metallica. I highly recommend it.

I'd also like to say that I (as well as Dave, I'm sure), was very sorry to hear about Morgan Harrington. It's a shame anyone should die at such a young age. I'd like to wish my deepest condolences to Morgan's friends and family. To all of the many people who spent months helping to look for her, you all should be incredibly proud of yourselves: that's what makes the human race fantastic. I wish the police luck in bringing Morgan's killer(s) to justice.

I will be catching a few Metallica shows in Europe this summer, and I'm very excited! I'm particularly excited about the Big Four! Woo!

Finally, in honor of the ending of Dollhouse, a truly terrific TV series, this month's babe is long over-due: Eliza Dushku. It's amazing to me that I've never included her before, she's an amazing actress and a stuningly beautiful woman.

OK, that's about all I've got for now. See you all next month!

Phil

GOOD

BAD

Too much fucking snow

BABES OF THE MONTH
