This show took place on my fifteenth birthday. I wasn't at the show or anything. I was probably doing trig homework. In any case, happy fifteenth birthday to me. Read more

Johnny Cash plus some fine company.

This HAS to be a move that plays more to those outside the program than in it, right? It’s not like this can really be policed, but it at least looks halfway decent on paper. Getting the focus off FSU for as many seconds as they can is a decisive motive. Read more
