@SonoSoloFede @BruceBartlett Well yes. And if my aunt had balls, she’d be my uncle.

As the song goes, the Bluest Skies I've Ever Seen are In Seattle. Please feel free to follow me there, https://t.co/Sr80a5Gyl5. I can't completely abandon this cesspool but I'm definitely going to be doing most of my socializing there.
