An Example Of A Good Text Message.
my car is cleannig - mohamed

I need help! As a lifelong EV reader I have been desperately trying to catch up, but I'm having trouble finding the posts that came after the most recent hiatus. You must help me, you used to have an award named after me dammit! I am unable to activate the fury level of Pete Dunson, but I tried.

Josh: CLINT! Welcome home, friend. Our letters section just hasn't been the same without one of our oldest and best readers. I expect a letter from you on every single article you've missed.

Josh: There's something inexplicably hypnotic about classic Clapton sung sweetly to a prostitute's ass. Plus, I came for the video, but I stayed for the always-excellent YouTube comments!
