I started my company (Mission Control) 3 and a half years ago to help launch my music career as well as the careers of other aspiring artists. The time has come to close this chapter of Mission Control and move forward with the next phase.

2 shows remain until the final Mission Control Monthly!

The Cougars are coming!

Its true, I am attracted to older women! And why not? Their sexier, smarter and more confident than their younger counterparts plus they have the life experiences to back it up. If you're in pursuit of a cougar tomorrow may be your lucky day at The Palo Alto National Cougar Convention.

Happy Hunting!

More Than Meets The Eye.....Netbook?



TakaraTomy (The Japanese counterpart of Hasbro) has truly updated the Transformers line from the 80s. No one carries Boomboxes any more and almost everyone has a laptop. And all though this is NOT a working laptop, it is a fully functioning USB hub/action figure.

Transfering files will never be the same!
