LOL. Now when have I ever disappointed you?

More details will be forthcoming as this project is brought to fruition. For now, we (myself, alan stevens, and bo durban) felt that a countdown would be kinda neat. It gives us motivation to stay on target/task with this, and also adds an element of anticipatory mystery to the whole thing. The logo is indeed a Phoenix rising from the ashes which has a lot of meaning, not to mention that this project was announced in Phoenix at Southwest Fox 2007. If you look closely at the logo you may also note that there's a familiar face in there as well. More to come... this is just the beginning.
