A seat for each cheek
March 31, 2008
It looks like it lifts and separates, possibly airing out that long distance induced swampy butt feeling. Just don’t lean too far forward that metal loop doesn’t look to comfortable….

Airbrushing + Tailgate = Awesome
March 31, 2008
Murals on your car are awesome! I used to have a 1981 chevy van and it would have looked so sweet with a mural like this on it. People will think twice about honking when they see mister boney here chillin’, flipping them the bird.
LV dumpster…..
March 31, 2008
This for some reason reminded me of the Hulk…but like instead of a Bruce Banner turning into a green monster….the dumpster turned into a giant piece of LV luggage….no…no…maybe it’d be like the other way around…. a HANDBAG turning into a DUMPSTER…..fff….that makes SO much more sense…..all right…I got to get started on the script….
Tunnel two!
March 31, 2008
This tunnel is awesome! Go on a sunny day, and it gets so bright inside… bright like looking into a flashlight kinda bright.
Oh yeah… it’s right by New Brighton park… you know, that one down by the PNE.
with the weather we’ve been having….

Last Laugh

Some dude beaked at me the other day to take off my snow tires. I laughed, in an embarrassed way, and feebly said that it would snow again…
All’s he said was “fat chance…”
