Rider Fall Down(Round I - Steph's Sad Story)
Actually it was a little more complicated than falling down. This was my first honest runaway, and it was a doozie :) |
This was my pull code. Really and truly. (I think AERC needs to be a little more creative minded in their pull codes. Just think of the possibilities.)
