@Leyla: Yes, and I don't mind at all. =)

Thank you for giving JoCo the love he deserves!

This is the kind of song you play when you just want a romantic night with your significant other who is a geek after a tough DnD Campaign. Wanna play?

I love this song.

Also, does anyone else have the problem of immediately getting 'Ikea' stuck in their heads whenever they enter or drive by one of those massive stores?

Happens every time with me.

If you like that version, there are a number of machiminima renditions that are even more clever.

Here's the World of Warcraft version of the same song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_ryNJVreiY

Maybe it's because they weren't cloned - they were the results of surgical grafting and... um... Showmanship.

JoCo is awesome. You can get this and many of his other songs on iTunes. I saw him live in SF last year, and he was fantastic, as you'd expect.

I frankensteined a stuffed horse toy and a couple of stuffed monkeys into a half-pony-half-monkey monster for my girlfriend the other year.

Now, we our married. "Skullcrusher Mountain" was the song for the first dance at our wedding.

If you think this is too geeky, we'd like to introduce you to our assistant, Scarface.
