guess there's a Common Thread of our guests weird sausage yeah

oh man those are my kind of parties love a barbecue nice little barbecue throw some gr throw some weenies on the grill

that's a that's a good time for me so uh oh yeah you know what I also saw I went to a comedy club out there in Laughlin

they have a comedy club now um we got some free tickets from this gas station right around there when we were hopping

around like oh let's pick up some beers and uh the lady kind of bummed us all

out from giving us Comedy Show tickets which sounds like an oxymoron kind of confusing but she

said and I'm paraphrasing uh she was like oh um you know someone came in here

and gave a couple free tickets uh so if you want any like you guys can have them cuz I told the guy that you know so much

is going on in my life right now it's going to take a lot to make me laugh so we're like thanks for the Pacifico and

yeah we'll we'll take we'll take the ticket thank you so it got got all four of us for free but all die I mean we

were kind of just like dude I wish I wish we could have got the lady to come with us cuz it was pretty good it was

pretty good act we had a good time uh I forget the I'm going to reach out to get

the guys on our show there's three awesome acts um one of the guys I had to get merch for uh the family it was like

a a Subway font but it said Subway so so needless to say dude ruled

it it great time it a great time um who were the comics where was the show at uh it was yeah so in the

Edgewater now they have a uh comedy Live LA you would think it's Los Angeles but

it's I guess the LA stands for Laughlin good good branding I would say

and also I did say there was like you know the banner that something like that we have in the back where it says uh

comedy's Edge or whatever and I love when banners do this where they just

kind of have logos of there's HBO logo on there there's an MTV logo on there

there was like oh dude I forget the three other ones but I'm like then they're just there on the bottom it kind

of gets a club more like some kind of reputable thing and I I I couldn't for the life of me figure out why they were

there but uh as seen on MTV or as seen

on HBO yeah so what it said prior to that was uh Last Comic Standing you know

I'm sure we're all familiar with that so then I said hey was last Comic Standing on all of those networks different times

because that that's what would make sense to me but they just replaced the the banner

yeah oh man so guess that smells like a good weekend dude geez it was a good it

was it was a great weekend um yeah so I guess do we get into some poetry we got

we got the we got the legend Peter here so let's Peter let chuga get into some dope stuff man let's do it all right

this one is for uh as a request from Louise and it's a poem about a mom so

there we go when my mother told

stories it was a construction zone the rumbles and the wors of her

words shook the room the dust kicked up by her enthusiastic hands and feet

snowed imagination onto my head she stacked brick onto brick as she built

worlds she carved myths into the waiting walls of my dreams she planted seeds of

our family's history at the roots of my heels she nurtured those sprouts with her Sweat and Tears she watched rustling

leaves unfold into bustling cities she harvested Heroes that fruited from tall

trees she protected the land with all of her being she showed me possibility

creativity opportunity when my mother told stories I wore a

hard hat stood a bit back and

listened nice dude I like Snap yes I need I need to

get a snapping queue for that that was beautiful stuff man I love it thank you thank you I know I like the ending I I I

like the you know listening to the stories with the heart hat that was full on conclusion right there I brought it all back together thank you appreciate

that Andrew do you think this is a like a

classroom what was this is actually my workshop thank you guys for coming thank you for the price was was pretty good

for us so appreciate that uh I liked the middle and part then

if Andrew saying he likes the end [Laughter] part uh uh Lis what was your favorite

part the beginning you set the set the standard there yeah that's that's some beautiful stuff that's beauti stuff and

is your uh is your mother still with us yeah she is oh I'm glad to hear I'm glad to hear yeah uh I guess I don't know if

it was the other uh way if I got another response I don't know where I would go from that

conversation so I'm GL I guess I'm glad okay yeah ex as well as you are I'm

sure it's like oh Dar just missed the funeral sorry man I'm never good at checking my

emails oh uh so I guess I guess you you guys got any questions you anything to

say about that what inspired that one uh so yeah my mom uh growing up she told me stories uh constantly and I feel from

her is where I got my sense of Storytelling why I love stories and why I just love creating them and writing

was from her creating things constantly when I was a child like every night she would make up new characters and new things yeah

yeah that's awesome um so Louise I'm guessing that you wanted a a huge shout

out for your mom that little yeah birthday poem yeah man little birthday poem 71 dude it's hard to hard to think

that so the the age gap between my parents and I is like exactly the same

as myself and my oldest daughter oh okay which is a trip because like you know what I mean you think you're like dang man when I was their age so now I'm

thinking like when you know Kirsten's my age you know or yeah I'll be 71 I'm like

gez I hope I make it to that yeah and I remember last year's birthday party you through uh for was

amazing uh man if I would have known that you were just going to pay for the check I would have I want to drink a lot

more yeah shout out to Rob too oh shout out to my brother man that that dude ran

a half marathon so like I I kind of put it up on our on our little group chat but so he did the rock rock in Vegas or

rock and roll in Las Vegas uh and but the the thing I didn't put on there man

was this was after got a torn Achilles eight years ago wow and back surgery I

think he's going on three or three years ago wow so I know for him was a half it

was a half marathon yeah so he did it in I think two hours and a little under 2 hours and 30

minutes which incredible I mean for him you know he wasn't as great as athlete as uh Andrew over there

but but uh but no he he definitely I know mentally it took a a big toll on

him and just to get to back to where he was at just to even run again you know it was a big step for him man so shout

out to him love you Rob and uh yeah so it was it was cool man yeah shout out Robert we're all proud of you to heck

yeah uh and I feel like he glossed over some of his like the sickest part of that was he was wearing like Palm Tre

shirt that's right represent so he he did hit me up he goes hey man he goes I need a shirt bro I'm like okay so I I

gave him I gave him the the black one that I had at the house I was like all right and then he goes uh yeah he's like

it's cotton dude he's like I had to wear Band-Aids on my nipples yeah I was like

what he goes you don't run dude you don't know I'm like okay so yeah I guess they get chafed yeah and and even if you

don't run obviously you just show that you don't watch the office because there's a classic Office episode where

where Andy's running and he has to has to tape his nipples up never got into it did you see the one where Kevin spilled

the chili never got into that's my favorite one man I couldn't get past that first season dude

like oh you got to get past the first season I can't it's rough you know what else is rough I think I think the whole

reason I do this radio show is to anytime the office uh gets mentioned I go on a rant about how Jim's not that

good of a guy Jim Jim's just scamming on this uh

lady who's engaged to be married yeah yeah the whole time and we're supposed to be rooting for him it's like I don't

know about you guys but I have a lady that works I guess in the office too and I'm like I would hate if she had a nice

she had a nice gim over there who has a better haircut than me

also I don't think Jim could work in an office with that haircut it's like kind of like Beetle Shaggy stuff like me in

sixth grade is what I I think it's like yeah I'm team Ron I'm team Ron I think

that's his name I think that I think I think that's his day no he just he just knew it man he knew that she deserved

better he just wanted her to have a better life hey and you did you meet your girlfriend when she was engaged

what's going on you're you're kind of taking his sigh that's insane I knew I could take care

of her better than that guy could he all yeah and then the jab is he

works in a warehouse yeah God forbid that work manual labor what a jerk H I always think it's funny when people

start relationships right that they either they leave their significant other and then they and then they have trust issues I like

Hello wonder you don't trust each other yeah yeah it's like no no I'm different yeah they wouldn't do that to me though

not like that anymore yeah they're not like us is a is a thing I've just been saying lately I don't know

why oh man I want to go watch de grassy when I get home oh no said nobody yeah

said nobody have you watched Edie of that show yeah of course did you grew okay yeah I grew watching that dude sh's

rip JT yeah yes yes for you guys for you listeners who watched the grassy you'll

love that one rest in peace Drake's legs yeah oh yeah that was that was a rough couple Seasons also I remember the

episode where he's uh post post the school shooting which is they cover heavy subjects in there that's how Drake

lost his uh his ability to walk he then you know he's he's struggling to uh get

intimate with his lady I don't know how Kendrick Lamar didn't use any of those

scenes to like burn him but yeah yeah he didn't watch it he didn't watch it yeah

he didn't waste his time yeah fair enough fair enough uh Peter what was your thoughts about the halftime show I

loved it I thought it was amazing yeah it was awesome awesome stuff uh Andrew said he said he couldn't understand

anything he was saying I think he's and that's like the one complaint I've been hearing well not the one but

like that's the larger complaint I've been hearing is uh from H um how do I

say this C PE certain of a people of a certain demographic were saying that I can't understand them yeah like I I

watched the show I could understand them my one uh gripe might be uh the bell

bottom pants they were flared they were flared yeah yeah yeah I was like those are sick boot cuts when I wore those I

got thrown in a trash can how come he wears it he's a trend Setter but that's my one gra but that's my one gri the the

same people who say that they couldn't understand Kendrick uh will like right after listen to an hour and a half

podcast from RFK Jr so yeah that's funny I guess he eats McDonald's now I

don't know yeah apparently yeah so I guess he fixed the problem he's not happy about it but he does do it

yeah uh Andrew do your impersonation of RFK you're crazy but wait what's this

McDonald's thing did he save his receipts you're crazy uh well he was

against like all that like processed and fast food and then uh when he was running and how'd you keep up with some

of this stuff first you didn't know about the tiki torches so uh when he was campaigning

that was one of his like big things he was behind about the fast food and what we're going to be able to eat and then

uh he was hanging with them boys the proud ones and I mean I'm sorry Trump

and then there's like a photo of him like with they're eating McDonald's right yeah that that released in the oal

office yeah they're just there posing with McDonald's mhm mhm so no way I can't I didn't even see that that was

that recent it was like right after he was inaugurated Trump yeah yeah so so semi- recently I miss that one of my

favorite photos we should all just go down the row uh saying our favorite photos with Trump uh with food just like

really bad greasy food my favorite is him with uh I believe he posted on singco de Mayo uh him eating a taco bowl

oh Taco Bell I I don't know where it was from I can't remember but he was in a in a PJ a private jet with a taco bowl

right in front of him and I think giv thumbs up so I mean that was that's what he thought representation like he's like

representation matters I ate a taco bowl dude come on don't talk about my mom's president like that

night out at the casino hey and uh yeah so uh it's published in this

uh literary Zen uh called Community milk from no Poole Poetry Club in Long Beach really dope Community out there really

great people so this one's called the night out of the casino set your

limit never gamble more than you are prepared to lose when all your chips are

on the table and the odds bleakly smile at you learn to walk

away but what if you can't what if minutes dangle before

midnight on a starless street you are driving home under blury Moon after a 10-hour shift can't tell if the woman

running in front of your car is real or a flicker of imagination burning out

what if a heavy moment later you glare at the rear view a large Shadow swallows

her hole pulling her head into the curb you swear you can hear the violent

bounce the Leen thud screaming in your ears weighing your car down to a stop

what if the person on the other side of the phone phone line can't understand you through panicked shallow breaths

your voice cracking like the concrete cushioning her head as his hands fall rapid as rain what if you've reached

your limit hang up the call swing open your door and blindly plot into the

night to grab the baseball bat buried deep in your trunk the metal feels like folded paper in your trembling arm a

makeshift origami weapon slipping from the weakness in your flimsy grip what if

you gamble shouting into the black preparing to lose everything the shadow

lift from her hovering low blood dripping from his stormcloud fists onto

her Picasso face you feel the fading Wick in her eyes begging you for oxygen

pleading for anything what if all your chips are on the table you can't keep

your shaking body still your nerves aren't allowing you to gasp for cold air

a yell Echoes but you can't comprehend the words he reaches into his jacket and

all sound isolates itself through a cradle of rattling ribs into your pounding heart for moments and moments

and moments finally the jangling of keys Rings like music you've thirsted for he

runs to his car the tail lights flicker into nothing you can breathe again

what if she blames herself her tears leaving red streaks on

her swollen cheeks and gashed lips she tells you all she wanted was a night out at the casino but he was drunk and angry

and his mood swerved from Lane to Lane until this wasn't the first time he'd done this [ __ ] the red and blue lights

wash her dying star eyes as they tend to her she bleakly smiles at you what is if

you never learned how to walk away damn didn't see that one

coming yeah that awesome Eric we need to talk to

you uh I got to ask what what inspired that one that's that's a real story of

what happened yeah okay and it was something that you you had uh yeah yeah I was uh driving home from work MH I was

yeah it was like it was late I was just working for a long time I think over over 10 hours I to stay there like right before midnight and um driving I'm tired

and I see a woman run right in front of my car yeah while I'm I'm driving and I was like what the hell I'm on the

streets I like what is that so then I look behind and I see a guy following her and I see like a car with a door

open the lights are on like behind me and he's following her and I just see him knock her to the ground and on the

other side of the street and I'm panicked I don't know what to do so I'm like I want to get involved so I called

I call the cops let them know what's going on where it's at and then I turn around and uh put my headlights

facing their way and get the baseball bat in my trunk and confront the guy and he runs away and uh it pretty scary but

yeah oh man that that's some that's some heavy stuff yeah that that's wow well thank God you were there you know what I

mean that's uh that's some crazy stuff right there yeah wow so make sure to check out

that's what he keeps saying yeah that's half the fun I already locked up my my what's it

called the handle even though I haven't done it but I locked it up so that nobody what is it yeah it's already locked up patitas

Pras that's a smart move that's a smart move that's a that's a money maker move right there by got to show my feet yeah

let's have fungi toe goes away it's like that person who had like bought like google.com when with the domain I don't

know if you guys remember hearing about that and then he they had to buy it from him for I forgot how many m or something

yeah or that woman that bought Sierra Mist uhcom there's a bunch of yeah well

she had the name to Sierra Mist so that's why it's called star now oh really oh okay okay that's s Miss hear

that had no clue I did not know that Andrew's shaming me I didn't hear that

one pull it up D that one was years ago all right you got you guys keep

going I'm going to look this up I got to I got to find something out I was highly upset when they got rid of SAR Mist I'm like hey man what the heck I likeed it

better than seven up she sued uh Pepsi for the name and

they said that she should she should have been getting money for it and they weren't paying her out on it and so they

ended up suing and instead of yeah keeping the name they had to change it to Star was that her stage

name coming to the stage I actually think she worked for them Shar missed so

I I don't know if which one's true but Pepsi Co might have put out like a fake

one to say uh they did it in 2023 to compete with Sprite and 7even up cuz the

Brie brand was intended to appeal to younger consumers especially gen z f news star that's crazy no that's not

real you know you know uh you guys remember you guys remember being young and being like man I wish this soda had

a cooler name like I'm not drinking RC that sounds like that's that's kind

of close to Peete so I'm not drinking that oh man I don't I just doesn't seem like

a thing that's just a that's their PR team spinning it yeah 100% it's it's I I

smell a conspiracy that's a cover up the one that hurt was a WWF one dude that one stupid

pandas but you got a great shirt out of it right what the panda shirt yeah the panda shirt with the cherries and with

the Cher oh yes that's a great you're right you're right yeah dude I mean n WWE it confused me cuz I was probably in

Middle in that rebranding hit and um I saw a lot of the uh kids with a WWF

panda shirt not the cool one where there someone's getting smacked with a chair and I was like I don't what wrestler is

that is that a new character Vince mcm's gone nuts the

panda Warrior and then K Fu Panda comes out he was ahead of it dude

yeah oh man well uh y y want to hit into some dating advice for off Reddit let's

go ahead and hit some dating advice from redit um but we can't do it without

Andrew singing our segue song for the J and here you

go let it go Andrew Let It Go which one you got to give me more you got to give

me more all right that's our dating advice song Segway thank you Andre that was beautiful I thought we were gonna go

with Fernando's uh searching searching for my baby we should have we should have I didn't have it queued up I'm

sorry next week we might have it queued up um oh man there's a couple there's a couple bangers here that all right here

let's go for something quick this one's not really even dating a device it seems like it's uh just a question just a just

a question on how to talk to ladies or if you should if you liked a girl who works in a retail store would you take a

chance and ask her out I'm wanting to do this I had a couple good interaction with one since the start of the year

what are your guys' thoughts and responses no she's being paid to be nice to you please leave her alone boom dude

Legend uh deal I'll go last on this one go ahead Andie what do you what's your I

say shoot your shot okay she's a hard hard hard worker she's got a job she's

nice at her job obviously she doesn't hate it enough to be you know where it reflects back up to the customers but

yeah I think shooting your shot so I'm getting from Andrew to like to put it in so so blatantly harass workers

pretty much much allegedly allegedly uh Theo what about what's your response all

right here we go so 29 years in the grocery business MH you guys would be

amazed at what the number one complaint that we get from and I will say Trader where where you work at bunch of babes

throw whole wine shirts on them oh I have had the pleasure of working with a lot of beautiful young women and every

single one of them like to your point are doing their job MH but most of them are just nice they're just genuinely

nice and a lot of times man we have to have that conversation with them because they don't want to say anything cuz they don't want to upset the customer right

and they always say well customer is always right no um but yeah it it's

there's a weird blurred line that goes into that but to me man it's a zero

tolerance thing because it's like you know again like it and it's especially I mean they range from a 18-year-old young

lady that just maybe graduated high school right to you know I mean maybe another like an older woman that has

some seasoning call in a sense and they my category no but yeah some seasoning

right they've been seasoned and uh but uh but yeah man it's it's a it's a weird

weird blurred line but yeah I'd say just yeah read the room man they're doing their job yeah uh Peter that was so

eloquently put uh she's getting paid to be nice to you uh and I do like he said

we had a couple good interactions since the start of the year it's like and next thing you know yeah the lady at

Chick-fil-A said it was like a pleasure it was like a pleasure for me or something she has no idea who he

is oh man I've always thought that because you know uh I grew up with nothing but women in my household

besides my grandpa and and my Theo and stuff so you know I would always hear these different stories I kind of felt

like I learned I got a lot of game that I was able to soak up uh how not to be a chump but somehow I am

sometimes yeah they taught me at a Riz but you know exactly like I never want

to add to the creeps they already have to deal with yep you know what I mean I

ne I consciously never want to do that so like if if a chick when I was single

if a chick was filling me quote unquote uh at Hooters I I wouldn't I wouldn't her I'd

be like asked for her number afterwards I'm like even though I'm pretty sure this is a sure thing at Hooters I'm like

ah Noah uh Eric goes what was that nice establish on the 215 and Ladena like

exact they all me unfortunately I believe they're filing bankruptcy so we're all kind of bummed out about that

uh but yeah exactly like I feel like the same kind of people who would holler at a lady on the clock is the same kind of

people who are like oh that stripper was in me you know what I mean like I don't know dude she was digging me um yeah I I

love that we're all we're all on the same one there yeah uh yeah when I'm walking somewhere and it's dark and

there's ladies uh like either in front of me or behind me I'm I'm stomping or whistling I want to make myself aware

and I'm like like I don't want it you know I'm just like I wonder what my daughter's up

to right now hands to your side yeah or up high Walking With Arms in the

air so good I am here just be aware um yeah okay so there's there's a couple

gnarlier ones and let's go to girlfriend had videos of her ex

of her and her ex being intimate okay so okay yesterday I went this is already

problematic yesterday I went to a recently deleted and found so many videos of her and her ex having sex

she's claimed before that she's never recorded her having sex with anyone so I caught her on a lie on that and then

claimed she forgot that that happened I was bothered that she still had that on her phone even though it was recently

deleted typically photos and videos only last 30 days on the recently deleted and there were 17 days left so she deleted

all of this recently recent uh really recently she lied to me about it what was it that's it for the first time yeah

keep you could you could definitely go back and I forgot what it's called recover it and delete it again yeah

recover and deleted he knows of uh yeah so uh he got really mad when she wasn't honest and uh

she's like I don't know if I should be mad or upset with her because I saw that even though it was before me and was

recently deleted any T tips there's a couple tips in that video uh on how to overcome the issue with her uh what are

you guys' thoughts on that I'll go last again Andrew you want to go first this time yeah I don't know

I think uh I'm completely kind of against going I mean if you're G to go search for something you're G to find stuff you don't like um it was in

recently deleted so I mean it's kind of even hard to say that she was keeping it I bet there was something

[Laughter] um but yeah I think I think this guy

definitely shouldn't have gone looking but yeah did he say that he uh admitted to it he called her out on it yeah and

so she said uh she forgot that she filmed those videos cuz she she also

said she's never filmed anything like that but then she forgot that she filmed those videos yeah I mean it's kind of a hard

truth to tell somebody if you want to be with them I mean I don't know yeah telling the truth does play out pretty

good but yeah you got to make sure you have deleted deleted and they're gone but yeah I don't know that's a tough

conversation yeah uh insane I feel like yeah it's pretty bad to go through uh I

mean going through what recently deleted photos exactly that is insane what if

you she just he just saw like she just sending uh big old turds to like her friends like dude look how big this was

you know like what what do you really cuz those are what in my recently deleted so it's like dude I'm healthy

this is a healthy stool I don't remember eating that uh Peter what what are your thoughts yeah I mean it's a complete

invasion of privacy him going through her phone like that yeah that's a little crazy but it's clear that she lied to

him I mean she did lie to him and uh recently I it doesn't State how long

they've been together right no no that's what some people were asking as well yeah that because that I think that matters a little bit too seeing how

recent that breakup was but the fact that they're what 17 days old is a little troubling for sure for the

relationship so he's probably thinking about it rewatching them and then delete him again or something so who knows you

know when he wasn't doing his job in the B she like I got to go I got to go uh I'll be right back exactly so oh man I

hope I hope for this guy though he didn't press play cuz I cannot imagine

you know he pushed play you know he push play when I found out I wasn't my lady's first I had it I

was like no we got together like like a year

ago I was like what that's crazy uh she she did just turn 21 so I

mean got a point oh yeah that that's that's crazy

um glad we are on the same page on that one uh I got another one that kind of is

uh going to make us all bummed out so might as well end the show on that note uh this this one's titled GF wants an

open relationship uh my GF wants an open relationship and I uh uncomfortable with

the situation she's been talking to a guy already for about two months I found this out about a week and a half ago

we've been together for S years and it's at its ups and downs for sure I want to keep working on a relationship but she

tells me the only way I'm able to keep her right now is to share her as she

doesn't want to currently progress in our relationship if I don't want to do that I have to let her

go we have two kids together I'm very scared of what's happening I love this woman and want to

be with her the rest of my life she claims she wants both of us any

advice that's a yikes yo this is Pop trees in progress presents and uh this

is a good fun show uh and I uh while anyone on any

responses I think L should kick it yeah I would say uh take my brother's advice and start running

[Laughter] run yes yeah yeah yeah yeah what about

you guys those ties Peter yeah I mean I personally like you can't pretend to be

in relationship like like want to be in it if you don't want one you know I want something monogamous I'm not going to pretend or do anything with that I'm not

okay with that so I be like no if you're not vibing with it just be like hey I guess we had to split up 100% And you

know what are your thoughts I'm on the same Pages yeah it's just uh as everybody I think it's just kind of a

waste of time if you can't commit to it and I would just be like yeah you got to choose and kind of yeah as fast as

possible I wouldn't try to drag it out that's for sure yeah uh I we're all the same boat on this one uh I do love the

ply whatever ply High School cow poly uh

uh memes there's a lot of them where it's like the best part of being in a poly relationship is uh my my

stay-at-home boyfriend gets to eat my leftovers from the date [Laughter]

night wow it's and you Andre it's Pizza it's it was just pizza that she came

home with but I was like what is this uh th those are always uh those are always

kind of funny to see and I will say from the videos that I've seen they all kind

of have the same haircut from inly relationships they all got certain kind of bangs and uh the guys have mullets or

something but uh Peter before we get out of here do you want to read another piece uh yeah sure yeah I think we'd all

love to hear another one okay all right so um who here loves pandus yeso all

right uh so my favorite pandus spot uh is in my hometown of San Fernando and um

the church I grew up going to and the school I went to a Catholic Church is right across the street so this is that

poem about that sitting in St

ferdinand's my hands fell asleep under my thighs against the cold wood of the

old church pews the choir crun its final exaltation but we can't leave until the

father drags his feet from the altar that rests below the Gilded cross through the Nave and its parted sea of

people floating with arms in the air outside the sun beam seems brilliant

and the congregation chirps but that does not have my attention I am focused

I can smell my goal waiting for me across the street the Cozy Aroma of bread just pulled from the oven is

calling my name from the corner I tug on my mother's blouse pointing toward the only reason I sat through an hour and a

half of lecture and homy the only thing that can revivify my tingling fingers

badia San Fernando where culture and history is baked into every crumb and

Fade Into The Waiting mouths of the meek who transform into Saints only for a

moment where sins absolve themselves once you bite into that warmth of that

soft fresh Pon where holy water is the drool from the sides of our mouths as it

blesses our faces trays upon trays of rainbows of conas brighten the room

Tortugas bathe in White Sands of crystal Iz sugar por kitos roll and ginger and

butter and spice the Bible mentioned heaven but I didn't think I'd be allowed to visit

here weekly the miracle is real and I can nearly taste it a brown bag is

stuffed the paper bursting with our treats for the week on the ride home I

am Overjoyed for when I sit in the dining room I will baptize mote and

leche spilling the sacrament on the table I will sing Hallelujah with a full

mouth every word will be heard and I will clasp my hands together in

prayer dude that was D that was sick Oh beautiful stuff right there man
