  LAMENESS

  03.19.10 | Permalink | 3 Comments

  The absolute lameness of this cannot be understated.  Even though words are failing me, I will attempt to move forward in ridiculing this as it so richly deserves.  Although, what is the fun in shooting fish in a barrel? This is a real ‘Emergency Room’ sign over a real emergency room that is open and [...]

Gomerville

I am a paramedic who works for an organ procurement organization in the wilds of Kentucky. I am also a husband and a father. Occasionally I fancy myself to be a writer, hence the blog.
