It is through endurance (focus) that we can and will achieve a heck of a...

Re: UBPN Chatroom

What time works for you jmar? Currently I have been thinking every two weeks starting at 5:30pm PST, day is flexible but Wednesday seems to work for most people. Date and time is flexible though and I'm open to hearing what works for you.

If needed, here is info on how to post a youtube video.
