About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

i believe a 46a bus will take me to Dun Laoire. i do not believe it is driven by Santa Claus.I WAS santa claus for the last four years.

if you are certain that you are right- then you are most likely wrong. All religions are interesting including that of doubt or none.
