    Pretended to be a courier today with a multi stop, something a little different. The nail in my tire only lasted about 5000 miles, don't make them like they used to

They last forever too, I've got hundreds of hours without even changing brushes. Course this year I've used absolutely nothing...

    Waiting for that hot summer we were supposed to get. Slept fanless in PA, cracked a door at noon when outside got over 80, it's hotter in Canada

    Found an online complaint form for the federal tax agency, is "you guys suck" too general?
