Periodically, as my good friends can attest, they hear me exhale in an exaggerated 'whoop' sort of sound. That's the 'release valve' as coined by the thug. Sometimes it's the exhale of exhaustion from a tough workout, but most usually it's the all too often unintelligible inner dialogue groaning and escaping.
so, now cue the blogging version of the release valve.
WHOOP!
