Did you guys miss me? I was on a practically-internetless stint for a while there, but now I've got high speed nets again and I'll be active once more.

So you might be wondering to yourselves, what has JAPR been up to? Or not. Either way, this is what's going on with me:

*Taking a semester off of school and spending the time with my girlfriend

*Just entered a copy band contest to win a free trip to see my favorite band ever at their 20th anniversary concert at Budoukan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ62a3RlNHY if you want to check it out)

*Trying to find a job for the time off...might end up doing door-to-door "hey give us some money to push for environmental policies" junk

So how's the Sift been? KP, Blank, Issy, DFT, you guys all still around?
