Sketchup 3d Modeller

Sketchup is one of the nicest, and simplest, ways to model something - especially if that something is non-organic.

Hey, Gay Eric!

Hey, Gay Eric!

Ever searched for that certain someone? My girlfriends friend Daniel, told by a psychic that he would settle down with a guy named Eric, has taken up that quest - and has created a website to get their attention.

sidenote: he totally needs to sell t-shirts, I’d buy one.
