Yeah Tristan, I know something about sleep deprivation too. I have so much ideas and plans for the future, but I don't have the time to work everything out. I'm a happy guy, but this is the only thing that really gets me down. Does anybody have God's phone number? I would like to call the guy and ask him to do away with the necessity to sleep. A day should be at least 50 hours as well. That way I would get some stuff done.

Haven't sampled frogs but I used to have some factory frog sounds on a drum machine. Pretty silly though... Can't say I've tried the froglegs either, because I don't eat meat. I'm too much of a frogophile Anyway, when I get the album online, give it a listen and let me know what you think. Thanks for the interest.
