I guess this is a chain letter of sorts, but I thought it was a great way to get to know Niles Heron, BNB's newest blog addition.

3c2. BevMo is brilliant.
4. I've spent the last two months trying to write a review of the King James Version by Houseshoes. I've tried recording it memoir style, writing it long-hand, and free-association typing... Nothing is worthy of the work relfected in it.
5. Sometimes I really feel like I'm better than some people.
6. Swagger on a hundredthousandtrillion.
7. I don't like many people who don't like Dilla &.

11. I hate you too.
11a. ...
12. I love you
12a. you are a different person than those people (that's a plural you) referenced in 11.
13. I've performed in front of crowds, small and large, and the closest thing to peace I've found on earth is being on a stage with a mic.
13a. Those of you who have been there, know what I'm sayin.
14. My album may never be finished. But if and when it is, I will be proud of it, and it won't sound like any shit you've (n)ever heard.

21. I work on campus for one of the nations largest bio-tech companies doing database support and training for research and discovery (among other things)
21a. There is not a whole lot crazier then when you walk into work and talk to a colleague who just patented a molecule that blocks tumors from taking on any nutrients, forcing them to eat themselves -- thus effectively curing cancer that's caught before metastasis.
21b. It's even crazier when you hear about little rats who they test the drugs on (i hate it, but better a rat than a human) grow random appendages.
