First of all, I feel the need to address my audience. Judging by the fact that I have over 1100 views and 0 comments on my last blog, I'm going to have to conclude that my audience consists of 1095 internet bots and probably 5 people who know me in real life and are spying on me. To the people who know me in real life, you're creeping me out by silently watching me! To my internet bot fans, I have no idea what you're reading my blog for, I have yet to mention anything about "Nike" or "Cheap Perfume". ...

Roadside Memorials Everyday we drive on the road, we come across some sort of roadside memorial. Typically, it includes some sort of Styrofoam crucifix and some arranged flowers placed at the spot where a fatal accident occurred.
