As we have just come out of Easter Weekend, we felt it was appropriate to remember how the progressive state celebrates this Holy event.
At least in one case, minions of the state commemorated Easter by gassing Americans and holding them at gunpoint. Public schoolers and young hipsters will have no idea.
During our SWAT Fuel Fitness Talk Jarrad addresses hygiene and a very simple and once common way to prevent spreading fungus and bacteria at the gym.
We have a very special treat was well; the Punisher’s favorite song.
