We've said this before, but Shawn and I feel very fortunate to have met some super cool people during our five years on the Interwebs. Some of them we're even thrilled to include among our circle of friends. Blu de Golyer is one of them. Blu's name probably sounds familiar to regular Basementites.

I figured out the twist right away, but was still pulled along for the ride. And yeah, the last shot got me. Got ...
