u probably don't remember me...but i remember the first time i met you. I was at a concert and i seen you walkin around inside the gym smokin a cigarette, and i thought to myself...damn i wish i could be walkin around smokin like that dude. then later that evening you were tellin some female about the college you went to and she didn't have a clue what you were talkin about...then you said I'm the Smith in Blacksmith and I spoke up at that point and was like...oh, ain't your name Corey? And you had a big ass cheesy smile on your face. I never did get to apologize for being so short when you initially asked me if I enjoyed the show...I made an ass out of myself by assuming you were gonna throw some cheesy ass pick up line following your question...if only I had seen a picture of you before hand I would've known...well, you live and you learn.
I seen you in NY at Fat Beats too, but I didn't speak cuz you didn't look too friendly...so I'm saying Hi now.

Hey there Blacksmith, It is indeed a pleasure to make your acquaintance, I'm new to the site but I'm definitely not new to the Blacksmith movement, I just wanted to come by and formally introduce myself to the creator of the site instead of just comin on and posting up a bunch of stuff about me, I'm looking forward to building and networking with you and the rest of the Blacksmith family.

Peace n Blessings
