October 2010

Slow News Days

Not much seems to be happening at the moment.  No more news is forthcoming on Tool sideshow dates, though I’ve had it suggested to me that if you decode the last newsletter it suggests there may be three.  Socially though, things seem to be ramping up.  With the new Groups functionality a new Toolarmy group has started on Facebook.  I think it’s by invite only, so hit me up on… Read More »Slow News Days

Maynard Talks, Danny Drums

Maynard has a quick chat with Spin magazine, in which he talks about the latest happenings at his vineyard.  Highlights include: Do those retirees ever ask what Merkin, the name of your vineyards, actually means?
