[sic] Productions is dead...

I've decided to shut down the old site and remake it in the image with which it was originally intended: as a vehicle for my film and video work.  You see, yesterday a friend of mine and I went in on some HD video equipment (specifically, the Canon HV-30 and various upgrades), and we're going to start shooting ( Read more... )

And our short countdown leads me here: Brian's top song of 2008.  You might feel a little bit gyped that my favorite song of the year didn't release during the calendar year - in fact, it's several years old - but this was one of those "right place, right time" cases.  Plus, it's a ton of fun and has some meaningful lyrics to me.
