    The mountain of Hell is amazing, that’s a really rough course but the camera is rock steady.

    The orthopedic smile maker has probably produced more smiles on the net than it ever did in use.

    Easy way to start a conversation, just say, “Trump sucks”, or “Trump is great”, either one will do it.
    Oh wait, conversation... not argument/ fight/ brouhaha... nevermind.

    OK, where the world map is red drive on the right side of the road, and the blue on the wrong side.
