but first, a story…
once upon a time there was a nice girl out on a beautiful fall day. she was minding her own business and taking some super hot photographs when along came a cow. then along came a few more cows. but the cows did not mind their own business, the cows bit her butt…
and a boy named Ben laughed at the poor innocent girl.
the end. 
happy commencing with life, Ben!
There’s one hour left of 2016. What shall I say about thee? Well, it’s raining onf the fireworks.

Rather than go on about the craziness that has ensued since October of 2014, I’m just going to start here.
