Seeing as how there have been so many birthdays in October and already so many more coming in November, it’s safe to say May was a (getting) busy month.

Trip Brown be trippin’.
That was the first thing came to mind when I started this post. I erased it but figured it actually made sense. Trip is one of the funniest people I know as well as a talented filmer/editor. Not to mention he handles himself pretty damn well on his board.
