The Journal of Roddy McFodderwink
Found on scraps of paper, pizza box tops, and spare squares of TP were the rambling, psychotic, and occassionally brillant writings of Roddy. Here is a sample.

May 14, 2001 This is the first song I ever completed with my computer recording software. ("The Ewok Song" was started earlier but took longer to complete.) I've had this song around almost in it's exact form since 1991. I really, really like this song. I even think it recorded okay. I think the lyrics are clever and the music's about right. It's my own personal bias. It's also the reason why I recorded this one so early.... because I do like it. It's simple. But it works. I think, anyway. I don't know what I was doing back then that made it work, but it did. Copyright © 2001, Manitoban Exploitation |

May 13, 2001 This song definately feels plagurized to me. There's something extremely familiar about it. Perhaps it's stolen from a soundtrack or new age theme song. I hope that I respect whoever I stole it from -- otherwise, I'd be very embarrassed right now. Copyright © 2001, Manitoban Exploitation |
