Don't Forget: Walking Dead starts up on Sunday!

I've been so busy this week, that I didn't realize until earlier today that Walking Dead comes back THIS Sunday. Woohoo!!

The Toronto Sun is laying odds on who lives and who dies. I have no inside information (nor do I want any), but my biggest concern is losing Maggie. She's fantastic on the show and her love for Glen represents hope for the future (not unlike the new baby). And it doesn't hurt that she's totally hot (see proof pic above).

Would they kill her? Maybe. It'd be a kick in the gut, but it would do fantastic things to Glen's character from a character arc perspective. But it would also make me sad. Since this show doesn't really seem to revel in happy endings, I'm nervous. Of course, being nervous is half the fun of watching the show.

Long Time, No Update

And then when I finally DO update, it's just to ask for your help. I'm such a prick!

Here's the deal:

My good friends in the band Dominic Castillo and the Rock Savants have just stumbled on to an amazing opportunity. They've been playing small clubs all along the U.S. for years and years now, promoting their amazing music to crowds of all sizes and often making just enough money for gas and a few burgers. They sometimes sleep in a van (and occasionally it IS down by the river). They are tireless in their efforts to promote the rock. And their flavor of rock is amazing. Their records are awesome and they are "The Sh-t" live. They are, by far, my favorite unsigned band.

Just recently, they were picked as one of 10 finalists in an Interscope Records/Doritos/MySpace contest to win a record contract and have their video featured during the Superbowl. (Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas was one of the people who helped get them to the finals.) This could finally be their big break.

So I'm calling in all my favors to try to make this a reality for Dominic Castillo and Co. Here's what you can do to help me (and the crew). Click on the image below and vote for them. My understanding is that you can vote once per day per I.P. address. You may need to sign into your MySpace account first.

It would mean the world to me if this band made it big. They are the nicest group of guys (and a gal) you could ever meet. Zero ego, amazing musicians, and funny as hell. Now, please, help a great group of artists out by clicking on this link and voting for Dominic Castillo:
