I drive the DeLorean around Houston whenever I’m in town because it’s the only car that has fully active insurance. The other cars can’t be moved unless I turn their insurance on. It’s good in that I save some cash doing this and it’s bad in that I’m driving around a car that draws stares […]

Do you have a lot of free time? I’m posting up the mp3 files that I made a few months ago for your listening displeasure. Most of it is pretty boring, but I figured I’d put them online for the sake of making them available to the entire earth. Check out what you’ve been missing! […]
