So in another forum a few months ago during a debate about music I was pointed to a Finnish Band called Nightwish.  

Damn that was one of the best pointers I have gotten in years!

Print Story The Fall of a Great Man

Sad news about a truly great person, I didn't know him well, but he is now sadly missed.

I recieved an Email earlier from a friend of mine about a friend of his that I have met a couple times.  He died the other day at 39 years of age. 
Matt was a truly wonderful person with a great outlook on life.  Life Crapped on him (at least in my opinion) and yet he was a happy person who didn't let anything get him down or in his way.  He always smiled and laughed alot.

I miss the old days before Plug and Pray sometimes.  In general its been good for most part, but there just come times when I wish we had not so quickly abandoned the old ways.
