Turning 30 is a big deal to everyone but me!

Am I missing something? Every time the topic of my 30th birthday comes up (February 2 for those keeping score at home) people make it out to be this grand event that should be celebrated, and shouted from the tops of mountains!!! To me, it’s just another birthday, just another day in the life.

Ha Ha Ha!!!!

I’ve Got An Idea!

Dirty Andy’s getting married

It’s hard to believe, but my good buddy Dirty Andy (he’s a dirt biker racer… or at least that the story we’re going with) is engaged! I guess it is about time, as they have a one year old son, and are in their second home together…
Congratulations pal! Now the pressure is on [...]
