So RE Family,

What the heck jobs do we all have that 20 plus of us are here this early on a monday morning...?

I work at a Cartridge World in Machesney Park Illinois. 

I feel like I do my best work after a cup of coffee so... I find myself here while I wait for it to brew up.

Now your turn...
"Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
and prays that he always will.

But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys all of his mates are doing time:

Married with three kids up by the ring road
sold their souls straight down the line.
