WORK LOG – November 24th
Spent hours researching last night because I got mad at trees. Came to the conclusion that trees suck, but waterfalls are cool.

I've even looked up the proper terms to use around driving 4-wheelers. Today's search tops everything. Today, I looked up Beavis's teeth. Beavis from the … Continue reading Completed Enemy – Drumbo Dan
