Oh yes. The Department of Motor Vehicles. The least favorite government agency. I’ve been cursing the Pennsylvania DMV for the past 4 hours and I don’t see my language toning down any time soon.

Photo Musings.
Tonight I thought I would take a moment to go through the photos on my iPhone and do some housecleaning. It was either that or sitting through American Idol. I’m glad I picked the pics because I happened to find some interesting stuff on there. I usually only use the… Read More "Photo Musings."
