My Treat To You

If you're not aware of Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, I've been remiss in my duties. The Commander was a popular pseudo-novelty act in the early 70s with hits like "Hot Rod Lincoln" and "Smoke Smoke Smoke (That Cigarette)" but man - those boys could play.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
