We had a real great time with him in the shop,

Come and check it out,

and to quote Fos:
“It’s my best piece so far!”

Looks like it’s Jereme Rogers week on the world wide web.
First the story about the whole mushroom joke,
and now he comes with a rap mixtape!

I don’t know man, just get back on a skateboard ,Jereme,
