I wouldnโ€™t fly at this time for all the tea in China, no matter how cheap the flights.

Iโ€™m from Chicago, and I donโ€™t know where that is! (Bad me.) In my defense, I left a long time ago, when I was 24.
GOTV just got a jump start.

If sandwich shops donโ€™t start offering a sandwich named โ€œthe acquittalโ€ then what are we even doing
*The all-new Starvation Diet, brought to you by Drumpf and his gang of grifting shitclowns.*
