I'm back.  But where the hell have I been?

It's been an interesting couple of months.  The economy went in the gutter, Obama was elected as our next President of the United States of America, tons of video games came out such as Gears of War 2 and Wrath of the Lich King, and I've been playing my new drums every night living out my rockstar wannabe dream.  I know that's a lot to swallow, but it's time to get back on track.

Once again there will be a few changes to nc454 Land.  It's still going to be the spot for home theater, gadget news, and video games and music, but with the 454 twist.  What does that mean?  What it means is that i won't bore you with technicalities about audio quality or what TV has the best pixel count but I'll break it down why you should tailor your electronic needs to your own taste.  I'm here to point you in the right direction. 

So the 454 will go back to basics.  In the following weeks you'll see the "Of the Week" series with something new every weekday from anything from picture of the week to music of the week.  Think of it as stuff to check out when you got a spare moment.  And don't forget about the monthly giveaways!  Next week I'll be kicking off another season of contest giveaways with a PAX swag pack giveaway from the many stickers and cool art books and random brochures I collected while in Seattle.  So hang tight everyone and keep an eye on the sight and throw the 454 blog into your RSS reader for the latest 454 coolness.
