I'm here

Just running a few tests. I'm on youtube as well, but this more anonymous text forum may be a better outlet for the information I'd like to explore. I'm going to attempt to post weekly, at least thats the goal. :) I had an ocular migraine (those are things, apparently) today, so we'll see how far we get with this bad boy. Also, the content you're about to view is not suitable for minors ;)
