Back With A Vengeance (And A Beard)

I made my triumphant return to Chatty, last night, around 6:00. I didn't shave the whole time I was there. I was, originally, protesting my being in Myrtle Beach, and was going to shave when I got back to WV. But, I got used to the attention I was getting, so I decided to keep the beard for a while longer. I've never had a beard before. It's kinda fun.

As for the big, much-hyped, WDN video... Well, it didn't happen! "Reporters On The Beach" was cancelled. The tenth edition, last year, will likely be the last time you'll hear the title "Reporters On The Beach." There will be no "Reporters On The Beach 11." I apologize to the fans, but it's been obvious, for the last few years, that "ROTB" had lost its magic, and was no longer interesting, either to you, or me. This was not planned. It just happened... But... This is not the end of WDN. It's just the end of a segment of WDN. WDN will probably live forever.

Fans of Cruel Music will be pleased to hear that, although there was no "Reporters On The Beach 11" video, there WAS a video! And, it's going to become a staple of Cruel Music... Introducing: "Junebugg Fewget." This new adventure will be a combination of everything you've ever saw, or heard, from Cruel Music, in it's 13-year history. As the title might suggest, it's just me. Me recording music, or, in the case of this year's Myrtle Beach trip, me making videos. The video that was completed in Myrtle Beach is titled, "Junebugg Fewget's Big, Wild 2005 Myrtle Beach Vacation." It's hard to describe, actually... It's similar to WDN, in that it involves humor. But, I think the best definition of this tape would be a "visual blog." It was a lot of fun to make, and I think you'll be seeing a lot more of this kind of thing in the future... Hope you enjoy!
