Tuesday, March 28th, 2006

OK, so I’m from Iowa and I went to Drake, but there the similarity ends!
Skyler Bartels kept looking over his shoulder. It’s a habit he picked up living at the Windsor Heights Wal-Mart for three days. Really living there. Eating, sleeping, checking out the DVDs, never leaving.
