The other day at the skatepark I was awestruck by a long-haired blonde beauty who was shredding tranny. I immediately had to meet this girl and ask her a couple of questions. It’s not every day you get to see a fellow lady killing it at the skatepark. She goes by the name of Brittney [...]

A couple of months ago I stumbled upon a great old record player at a vintage/used record store by my house. My boyfriend had some old wooden speakers and a receiver and I was in business! Since then I have been on the lookout for old records, and great deals. Some of my best scores [...]
