Just Sayin....

Hi all,

Had to share a new blog with you. It's my son's new blog. He writes parodies about popular movies and book series. For instance, Harry Potter is Perry Flopper, Twilight is Midnight and Lord of the Rings is Lord of the Cheesecurds. He is just hilarious. I am super proud of him. He's bright minded and quick witted. So I hope you enjoy him as much as I do.

Tah for now.
Gonna go keep having a vacation.
