From the moment Georgia reopened in late April 2020, I've been back to my old travel habit along with my fiancée, Jenna Laino.

She is certainly better, they say, than Thomas Massie. Since this is insane, I decided to smash it. Sponsor: Getting clobbered by your competitors? Invisible in the search engines?
