I really couldn’t give a rodent’s posterior whether nametags gain traction or die, but that the church is renewed and re-inspired to focus on the things that are [...]
I don’t think I am a prude or a feminist, but I do think these T Shirts being sold now by Roger David are very very dumb.

If you live in the Perth area and need a plumber then I can recommend Geoff of GL Plumbing who has been doing some work for me over the last few months.
