“updates Tuesday, July 24, 2007 5:23 PM Random Jeeps sorry so sloppy.long time not much. time for your briefing.i am writing to you from the arlington national laundry room in beautiful, historic downtown tallahassee (formerly "sunny tallahassee" ain't nothing changed but the name). internet access has been limited these past few months, but enough excuses. you may notice my myspace page has "gone bye bye." i don't "know why," but i'm guessing it's because i'm friends with you sick bastards. maybe it was the roman bathing suit pictures. whatever. i'm still your friend.i will commute back to bustling apalach(icola) tomorrow. it's my new routine and it's peaches and cream. i sleep in a hammock under a window unit AC and cook and wear Croc Shoes brand croc shoes. loneliness is an issue, but recent advances in cellular phone technology are helping end the suffering. keep those lines ringing. as sifl once said "just yell into your phone and you should get through." in-the-knowers will be glad to hear that Flip Push is back. no phone but a nokia is good enough. people keep asking me: "how come steven seagal is so popular again?" linkanother question i get asked never is "how come you don't cater more norwegian weddings?" i would answer that question with a question. "who let the dogs out?"attn: movie bingecomments by TravisHunter he's so hot right now.also, if i ever have a kid, i'm not naming him hunter, miller, fletcher, tanner or trapper because those are last names. like anderson. stay tuned!
