Ready to laugh? You know how my entire house is falling apart in a series of escalating disasters? I also just got an email from the city about a $100 unpaid ticket from 5 years ago. I am 99% sure I paid it, but how the heck am I gonna prove that? UGH!!! It’s time to watch JHMS.

Discussion Post: What Are Your Driving in the Summer With the Car Windows Down Songs?

This is a universal experience, right? Or at least a universal American experience (we do love our cars!)? The weather is warm and sunny, you get out your car, you roll down the windows, you blast music and just drive. And my question is, what music do you listen to?
