    Over the last several month I have been goign back and forth with the people over at Gearbox Software in Plano, Texas. Ironically this all started happening after i quit my crappy lil movie theater job . I just went down there a couple of days ago for an interview . I brought along with me my mini sp mod , tmp_lodge , and my nmrih map that i have been working on . They seem really impressed with my mini sp mod which I hope to finish soon so everyone can see it. They also really like tmp_lodge. We didn' really spend much time on my nmrih map because it was lunch time but WOOT! i impressed them enough with just my mini mod and my lodge map that they wanted me to come back and work for them . When I go back down to Gearbox ill be working on Brothers in Arms 3 . I will have to learn the new unreal 2007 engine.Read about my journey and all the stuff that happend to me in my blog here. I included pictures and all that juicy stuff

    Well guys .... Thanks for being there for me! and ill see you in the industry :wink:
