You can’t pick your allies. Best US Cities for mclusky/FoTl, mclusky gear theft ($25K worth of equipment) the day G.W.Bush is re-elected.
Hello to Jeff Moody, Doing what you do… harsh invectives and brutal truths with Falco. christian fitness live? Not touring because of lack of money, being in a proper band and what that means. Welsh trains, more about cats, Shadow Analysts… per actor? per movie? per shadow?

He amuses himself with the Game of Thrones and Cosmos theme songs and plays a bunch of music that he likes. He tries to not say “folks” and mostly fails.
