While I am as far away from temperance and completely for legalization I don’t partake in anything considered a vice. …unless you count Magic the Gathering… Do whatever you want with your body, it’s your body, no one owns it.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
We have spring break running through a few schools during this week. That means more kids running around the store. We can try and try to tell the kids to not run, or ask the parents to actually WATCH their[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
