Perhaps you've noticed the layout changes to Glam-Racket.Maybe not.
In any event, they're part of one of the few New Year's Resolutions for 2007. The rest of the resolutions are found below, but before we tackle those...
Let's recap the progress of 2006's New Year's Resolutions:
- Watch more boxing (Hell yeah...HBO's Boxing After Dark got put to good use last year; I'm a huge 'Pretty Boy' Floyd Mayweather fan now.
- Todd Totale Will Stop Smoking. (As of this writing, the cigarettes have diminished, but here's the first mulligan from '06).
- Purchase 6 Bob Dylan cds. (Done and done)
- Freewheelin Bob Dylan
- Bringin' It All Back Home
- Nashville Skyline
- Desire
- Street Legal
- Modern Times
The 2007 resolutions are:
- New Glam-Racket layouts (Done and done..Woo Hoo!)
- Get married
- Have a baby (June '07)
- Get a job
- Get 5 new cds from The Fall (1 down and 4 to go)
Here's hoping that you'll get everything you want in 2007 and that the year finds you healthy, happy, and returning here as often as work 'n life allows. Comment frequently and nicely.

Worthy goals and I wish you the absolute very best with items two and three. Congrats!
When you mention The Fall, the image in my head is of a singer with very thick hair and maybe an Irish accent along with a super mullet. Also, he's always smiling. WTF band is that?
I predict you'll have a super-spectacular wedding in the biggest church costing obscene amounts of money that will prove your love to the whole town. So be it. Skip all that and marry your friend.
When you have your own baby I'm going to have to look at it from about a foot away for a long time to assess....just...it. The only other kids I know are still freaking me out, and for some reason they grew.
The Drazy Hoops will reorganize in '07 and focus on grooves; in '08 or '09, advertisers will go ape for Drazy material. The Drazy Hoops will only agree to deals using the name "Spindles feat. Bobby Brown."
Totale will be hired doing something somewhere. Soon enough, Totale will be hired elsewhere via contacts who realize there's a little more going on there.
I really wish you the absolute best of everything in '07. You're a good guy and really deserve it.
Fuck the Drazy Hoops...
When ya gonna release the third Stover album?
Every time I see that place kicker named Stover, I think of you.
Todd, here's hoping that good fortune smiles on your happy ass this 2007. May you get the RIGHT job, the cutest baby, the nicest wedding, the happiest marriage, and the right Fall CDs. With so many to choose from, there's bound to be some clunkers in the 5 you choose; here's hoping those are minimized.
When I think of the Fall, I think of a pain-in-the-ass-to-work-with-genius-potente with really gnarly teeth. That avatar you're using is a pic of one scary-lookin' Mancunian!
Supercat: no big wedding yet; the idea is to get the legaities out of the way pre-baby to address the out-of-wedlock heading and do something formal afterwards. I don't think that's the Fall you're thinking of. They had an album cover with M.E.S. on it looking like M. Nichols (who was recently arrested in K-town for public intox even though he doesn't live there), if that jogs thy memory.
Thanks to all and yes, Jimmy, whenever I play the Ravens on Madden 07 and Matt Stover kicks a field goal, I'm reminded that the Stover project didn't get around to that third disc. The tag "sophomore slump" comes to mind as a reason not to carry on.
I second the nomination for a new Stover disc. I prefer the term "expirimental" over "sophomore slump." I mean just look at "Hotter Than Hell", Kiss's expirimental sophomore effort. Their groundbreaking self titled debut closely mirrors Stover's "Brave Battles..." debut. If Kiss had listened to detractors the world would have never ended up with: Dressed to Kill, Alive, Destroyer, Rock N Roll Over, Love Gun, Alive II, Dynasty, Unmasked, The Elder, Creatures of the Night, Lick It Up, Animalize, Asylum, Crazy Nights, Hot in the Shade, Revenge, Alive III, Carnival of Souls, Unplugged, Psycho Circus, or Kiss Symphony. So, I guess my message is really, "don't listen to the critics" and "laser pointers ain't cool."
