Pimp My… John?
Apparently Roto Rooter wants people to start sh*tting where they eat eating where they sh*t. I don\’t even know where to start with this whole Pimp My John business, besides the obviously not thought of Pimp/John angle.

\’Tis the season
Ah yes… \’tis the season to ignore things you hold near and dear because of work and general life. Yes yes, it\’s an excuse you\’ve heard before… but it true. Just as true as the world\’s tallest man saving dolphins… seriously. Things have been so crummy as of late that I\’m quite tardy on the…
