What a day. I'm only now coming up for air. For all I know Canada is at war with Iceland, the NHL and the NHLPA have reached a deal and Dubya has resigned.

I just checked the news and it doesn't appear any of the above has happened. Between my clean install of XP and a series of meetings I've been out of commission since about 06:30 EST this morning.

When I finally installed all my applications and got back online I had a series of interesting emails awaiting me from Custom. You may recall he and I exchanged emails last month. As promised, Custom has sent me fourteen tracks he's produced in L.A. so I can provide him with my honest feedback. I'm going to do just that. I'm going to play them while I work and tell it like it is. I may just be able to influence what cuts make the album. Here are the titles I'll be hearing:

• Goodbye
• One Day (UK)
• Catch Me
• Yes Dear
• Beautiful
• Field
• Love Letter
• USA
• Fogg
• I Believe
• Funny How
• Shoot First
• Television
• Truth

I don't understand why more recording artists don't follow Custom's lead and send me the MP3s before their disc is pressed. That's what I'm here for.
