Chris A Ivey

Chris A Ivey


This song is dedicated to a powerful and magnetic WvW (world vs world) player on Ferguson's Crossing, our Guild Wars 2 server.  Chris A Ivey has an incredible talent for siege tactics, player control, and is a natural leader in our crusade against our server's enemies.  This is underscored by the fact that his character is a diminutive pink-clad sword-wielding Asura.  Prior to his appearance, we tended to wander aimlessly around the huge WvW maps without focus.  Now that Chris is an integral part of the Ferguson's Crossing war machine, we've managed to overcome the fact that we're vastly outnumbered by our opposing factions.  Join us in GW2 and bear witness to the Chris A Ivey effect.  He will lead you home.

Lyrics:


We were lost within a wilderness,
our backs against a wall.
Our wounded limped among
defeated moans.

We heard his battlecry rise up
inside our sore beleaguered line
Chris A Ivey had arrived
to lead us home.

We will follow him straight down to hell.
No problem.
We will return soon with tales to tell
about him.

Let's go, we gotta build this treb for him.
Come on, supply up.

Chris A Ivey
gonna guide me.

Brandon's Theme

Brandon's Theme artwork by Jackson



This song is dedicated to my excellent co-worker and good pal Brandon Judy.  He's a selfless worker who has the amazing ability to easily maintain a complex network of computers spread out across five large rural counties.  Brandon's also a really good guy, deserving of a theme song for trips out to fix various IT related concerns.  Thanks for the awesome support Brandon, we hope you enjoy this one!

The artwork associated with this post is an original by Jackson.  Thanks for another fantastic picture Jack!  Your talent continues to astound me.

Lyrics:

I've got your password.
I've got your user ID.
I know your itinerary.
I've got you.

I see your data.
It travels up through my veins
and settles deep in my brains.
I've thought you.

Guess I better ride out to the job.
These people don't know what I have to do.
Nobody else can do this good of a job
I've got this place running smooth.

I know their secret thoughts
thanks to my seeker bots.
and now their hidden spots
are on display.

They need a password.
They need a user ID.
They need their itinerary.
They need me.

We Can Do Anything

"We Can Do Anything" by Wiles, Ashland and Dylan Assael



Happy birthday Lolo!!  This song was written in support of your occupational freedom.  Job frustrations vary from year to year, and this one is especially discouraging.  Your continued sacrifices for your career are awe inspiring.  Try to always remember you and I can make a leap anytime thanks to our fantastically multicolored parachutes.  We can do anything, and we can go anywhere.  

The amazing picture accompanying this post was drawn by The Assaels.  Thanks for the wonderful art!  

Lyrics:

We are The Efts.  We have several life phases.  We can put on different faces.
We live on land.  One of these days we will have to return to the water.

We can be scandalous. We can really put up a fight.
We still have romance in us. I'll be the gas. You be the light.

We work and work and work and work and work and work and work and
do what we're supposed to do.
I say. We don't. Do that. Anymore.

Here.  Me and you. We can do anything.
Now. There's no anchor. We can go anywhere.
