Well, my first DEFCON is over. I discovered a couple things there. One is that drinking too much makes me a fag if there aren't enough women around and the other thing is that people like the news. So to all of you who drop by Hektik.org for news, thank you. Later this week (Saturday, I think) will be the debut of blood_rose's Royally Fucked Up Column About Whatever He Feels Like Talking About. Be sure to check it out. And don't forget about Hektik Radio this Thursday at 9pm MDT.

Watching a drunk Bloodrose make out with a long haired, bearded, spectacled guy in black clothing and a cowboy hat was vomit-inducing. Or it might have been the Budweiser.
