WOW, what an incredible Profile Photo with you in a Suit of Armor with WFMU on the shield! Beautiful! That IS you in the suit, right? Was that taken on your recent trip up to Belfast?
interesting themes for sure. American identity vs the idea of what freedom actually is and the version we are sold

Spikey BXL:
There's a way for those of us with a little scratch to spare to show our love to Matty even more. I am convinced he won't mention it, but check his instagram.
I once saw a dance show in the Louvre museum, one surprise is that nobody on that raft wore sunglasses, or even looked like Shane (that painting is huge BTW). The other is that Mona Lisa is tiny and doesn't sport a mustache
sure but theres the argument with all we are inundated with so immediately in current society, does anyone ever experience real freedom any more in any real way
I appreciate it but I would prefer not. I dont want any mixed intentions to be read and I appreciate you all so much more then you know for even mentioning.
Oh man Peter I hope youre healing up alright and get to go home soon!

Yes!! Do the exercises as prescribed!! It makes a huge difference!!
