Merry Day After Christmas…

I know some of you guys are anxiously awaiting this week’s 2 in 1 Showcase podcast. I can’t blame you, the podcast is AWESOME. But, this being the day after Christmas, I’ve got a family thing I’ll be going to in a little while, and don’t have time to sit in front of the microphone. You’ll still get your Showcase, peeps, but it’ll have to wait until tomorrow.

The good news is, that means we can push back the voting int he 2010 Showcase Awards one more day.
