  • Done with EST

    Very good book, not too long, not too short. I continue to be impressed with Cory’s work and attitude. I think we’re both on the same wavelength. Time for some work. Laptop -> Winamp -> Been Playing 553 Minutes -> Turn up volume on stereo to hear music -> Time to switch music -> D…
