    so like sorry about the roundabout thing, that was us Hoosiers, Indiana is the roundabout capital of the US mostly because we got tired of Chicago fuckers blowing though our intersections like they aren't there. Yeah the Florida vacations gonna have to wait hun thats what happens when you try to drive though a raised median. it does give a good tell though if your driving behind someone who approaches roundabouts with no fear their either from Europe or Indiana.

    I am not even a Christian of any sort, and even I am aware the only miracle that The Christ performed as a child was READING the scripture as a like 5 year old child. Then The Christ dis-a-f*cking-pears for about 20 years.

    The wedding at Canaan happened when he was 25-27.

    Boston is a Bubbler town ..also we have shopping CARRIAGES not carts…. and no family is allowed to say "Love". And if you get cold .. don't ever touch the thermostat…put another sweater on…at least that's how my family is

    Growing up in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Iowa, this was just perfect! I’ve been in Colorado for 42 years – when I watch Charlie I realize you can take the boy out of the midwest, but you can’t take the midwest out of the boy. You bet! 🌿
