Parting Shots

Are all I have to offer for this particular update. It’s sad: tragic, perhaps, but life goes on.
I’ve been drafted for a Bionix driving course for quite some time now, and tomorrow marks its beginning. What I didn’t know was that this course would also include the Operator Maintenance course, adding an additional 2 unwanted [...]
