Funded! What an amazing start, THANKS TO YOU!

July 16th - via: kickstarter.com
I'll be completely honest, I'm winging this post just a little bit (which isn't like me).  I thought it would be several days before we hit target, and I'd have plenty of time to put something shiny together to thank all you amazing supportive... (Read More)
