    Ever since Lord Otra transcended up to Val Haul-uh he has communicated with me through visions and dreams.

Or it may have just been the sunrise shimmering through a construction fence. Either way, I got the message.

    There are two breeds of trucker; the first is, as Red Hot Mess fondly refers ...

    International put me in the toughest spot to hit, but I scored with only a few of my free pull ups and no sweat.
