About Me

Chris: "Do you know what it is the anniversary of? I'm gonna give you a few to think about it. ... ... ... You don't know do you? Well I guess I'll tell you. This time last year was the downtown xmas lighting ceremony. But that's not what makes this anniversary special. This same night one year ago the "Play Red Jumpsuit" incident happened. Yes, that's right. You were falling off of bar stools, puking in bathrooms, punching people, passing out in Blaz-i-ers, and yelling for Jumpsuit to be playing. One of my favorite nights last year. Priceless."Oh, and I climb shit too.

"If it's not keeping you up at nights, what's the point?"

Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
