Oh, hey, it's that person who's too chicken to post on next door, but would like to urge you to stop shooting illegal fireworks into the trees.

Especially since 4th of July was last week, Halleward, back with a follow-up episode of Oligies.

0:16.4

You thought, wait, wasn't this bitch giving us a bonus episode about the Constitution? Where was it?

0:21.7

Well, it was smoldering over the coals all holiday weekend here in America. Truth be told,

0:27.6

I spent the long weekend cleaning out my parents shed in the woods and I got filthy and I have some new bruises, but I feel tough and I loved every minute.

0:36.4

I also ate scrambled eggs out of leftover hot dog buns. Let me tell you, that's a damn breakfast miracle right there, my babies.

0:43.3

Okay, anyway, nomology. Part two, it is here. So if you're brand new toologies and thank you, New York Times and Weired Magazine this week,

2:08.5

So I'll be reading the Constitution was some inserts just to clarify what the hell it means.

2:14.3

Then we'll be back with a regularly scheduled episode about bleach next week.

2:19.6

So finally all of your chemistry itches will be scratched while some of them.

2:24.0

Okay, but before we get cracking on this two things.

2:27.0
