    Rip Shane we miss you. Bernews I’m sure you could’ve found a better picture of him to put up though. It would be nice if you did.

      Actually sorry we don’t….as we can’t legally use pics unless someone gave it to us, we have permission, or actually took it ourselves. This is the same file photo that most media has used for a while, and its the only one we have access to. If you or anyone else has access to another one that we would be able to use, please feel free to email it in, would be much appreciated.
