April 20, 2000 by
As some of you might know, I’m a big fan of the Texas Rangers baseball team, and when I was at the game Tue night, I found something funny that I thought I’d pass along. You know how baseball players usually have some short piece of music played when they’re coming up to bat? Well, […]

TONY MARTIN & CANCER
February 18, 2000 by
As you may have read below, Tony Martin had gone in to get himself checked out for cancer. It turns out he doesn’t have it, which is way cool news. Whether you like his tenure in Sabbath or not, he is associated with the band, and I’m sure everyone out there wishes him all the […]
