Tiny Perfusion Letter #474

Tiny Perfusion Letter

We've always been told that you can only be certain of two things in life:
one day you will die
you will pay taxes (no matter how little...)

Getting a TPL at least once a week is almost as certain as those two
so there's no use fighting it
(unless you unsubscribe at the bottom, which we seriously discourage!)

Enjoy & Share
