About

Hello people, I am Adam DeLand. I'm pretty much the one on this site that made it cool to reveal true information and facts about myself. Here are a few things:

• I'm 32
• I'm the eldest of 3 brothers
• I'm a fan of Pokemon, yet I don't really care for most of Generation I
• I'm NOT a furry. However, I am a huge supporter of them, and I want to make sure that they aren't misunderstood.

And if you try to put me down, too bad…

Song of the Month

Each month I will post a song from my Music Library to show you which songs I happen to like. The song will most likely fit in with what's happening during the month.

May Song
Believe it or not, my youngest brother is now in Tokyo for the first 7 days of this month, the first of any of my direct family to go overseas. I am in no way ready to visit Japan myself, and I'm surprised he thinks he's able to do it (though he is accompanied by his friends). I wanted to used a song that made reference to Japan in a way, though the best one that I like that does so isn't really about it; it only mentions it once and uses the Oriental riff. It's the best of the songs in my collections that I've got, so I guess it'll have to do. Here's May's song: "Lies" by Thompson Twins.
