Denver, meet, erm, ’sex rock’

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

On California Candles, blowing stuff up, and lameness

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

I have to work tonight which is lame. Lameness only exceeded by my having to work tomorrow night, and that lameness is only exceeded by not getting time and a half, or time and a anything extra. But America wasn’t founded just so I could complain about shit. No, America was founded so we could […]
