Wanna see something different?
It's finally time. All the planning and mental preparation. In the radiator world, this is pre-meditated murder with intent to be fabulous. Some guys get 20 to life without parole for this kind of craziness...

Whee watersports!
More watersports!

Before you say anything, I happen to like that couch thank you very much.
More on the way!
