Team Macho Artists Statement:
“ This one time me and Nick were walking down the road and
we saw a squirrel and Lauchie threw a paper cup at it and then the
squirrel ran up the side of the building but Buchan was on top of
the building and grabbed it up in a net and gave it to Jacob and Jacob
said “i am the newest member of team macho” and we all
said “like diamonds you are!” - G.Stephen Appleby
