For the first time ever (I’ve been saying that a lot lately, but anyhoo…), this lone ranger will soon be rangering it up in the grandest state of them all: TEXAS! I have been anticipating this trip literally since last August when I registered early to attend SXSW, which takes place every year in Austin,…

So how’d you spend your weekend Linc? I’m glad you asked me that! Let’s start with Day 1: My state FINALLY allows us to get our defensive driving certificate online rather than put up with the agony of attending a 6 hour course with a bunch of other dweeb nozzles looking to reduce their insurance…
