Dear Michigan Drivers

Dear Michigan Drivers,
Hi! How are you? I’m doing well. Just wanted to give you all a friendly little reminder about something I think we all could stand to learn more about.
See, yesterday we had this funny white stuff all over the ground. If you were here during the SuperBowl, you’d remember they also had the [...]

The adventures of Papa Twerp
