| my new baby of my wife and i

The hall way was busy as ever but all I could hear is the silence that filled the air. The sound of the clock ticking boomed into my ear as I waited anxiously. I found myself pacing to and fro in front of door way, unable to sit still, unable to rest. A great flood of emotions rushed through me like a Korean soap drama with a never ending plot and unabashed love between siblings who are unaware that they're siblings. Owh, what a rush.



A nurse.. a particularly hot nurse, whom I'm pretty sure is rather poor due to the lack of covering on her body, came out into the waiting room. "Sir", she addressed me. I waited for her follow-up response. I waited again. "Uh... yea?", I finally replied. "Congratulations, you're a proud father".

Camera zoomed and focused as a gentle stream of tears flowed down my cheeks.. no, it's the other cheek; the one on my face. "Thank you", I said slightly sobbing as I handed her a wad of cash. "Go get yourself some new clothes for Christmas". Generosity was me.



I pused the swinging door open with both hands, a gust of wind (of unknown origin) blew my hair and cape (also of unknown origin) in slow-mo fashion. My wife laid on the bed, smiling from ear to ear. "I'm so proud of you", I told her with tears flowing down my cheeks, the other cheek; the one on my face. The doctor turned to me, carrying in his arms new life and new destiny. "Congratulations" he said to me as he moved his arms forward gesturing me to hold the new life in my arms.

The best part about my new baby boy is that he has these little thingies~

owh mai.. is that some USB?

With these guys I can connect it to my computer and update my drives, download amp models, etc and since Line 6 has a huge community, there's plentiful to download and put into my patch. But of all the patches that are available online, online one interest me, only one catches my breath.

Lincoln Brewster ftw~!

The even better part about the above video is the fact that he generously uploads the patches that he pain-stakingly took hours and days to perfect for our tonal pleasure. I download them and place em in my Pod and I jizzed~ For more info, check out his website.
