Break On Through

I made only one real New Year’s Resolution in 2009 – not to buy any toilet paper during the year. You see, last New Year’s Eve, I ran into my neighbors before they moved to Washington, D.C. “You guys getting on the road?” I asked. “Yeah, and we left a little present in front of […]
