Thank you all for your welcome back 8)

It feels right at home here. I've known (virtually) a lot of you for years, if not for a full decade or more :shock:

Hey, Mike!
Last year was a very good one. I got to score 2 hit TV shows. What I liked the most is that ne of them forced me to compose outside of my comfort zone, since it required a lot of electronic stuff. I really enjoyed it, and obviously, got to learn a lot too.
I just hope this year is as good or even better!

Aren't we so lucky to get payed to learn more and play with our toys? We probably would be doing it even if it were a hobby with no payment anyway 8)

How about you, my friend?
How's THE Master of silent film scoring and improvising? At this rate, you're going to run out of films to score, Mike! :lol:

Hey, Terry!
Thanks for the reco. I think I used to have Image Shack, or something, but they changed their plans and never bothered again.
I'll certainly look into your suggestion. I have a nice new avatar with our beloved Cedrick (our dog) I'd really like to sport here :)

I use MySpace for hosting images. It's free and they do not expire if I haven't gone to the site in awhile.

Otherwise, MySpace is useless.

Photobucket here with same level of activity as Mike has with his photo hosting service. Can't remember last time I looked in my bucket, but the avatar just rolls along, possibly to Phil's dismay. :wink:

It's been a while since I last posted here...

I get this Anti-Facebook and anti internet thing like once or twice a year. I hate it then I tolerate it again, depending on the season and my mood. And then it goes away. And comes back with a vengeance, jajajajaja.

Let's see how long it goes this time. Anyway, I can definitely say I missed this place. Can't say the same about FB yet... (No comparison) :)

:brucelee:

Sure glad to see you back, amigo!! :)
