You see, WALL-E, short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-class, is the last robot left on Earth. He spends his days tidying up the planet, one…
This is really not a public service announcement but I feel that I should preface my post with that statement. Why? Because I want to talk to you about your basket or kit of first aid equipment and medication. You see, last week, I found myself in a predicament of sorts. Yes, I know I…
