The world has been overwhelmed with disasters in recent weeks. A series of fireballs and earthquakes has rocked and shook this planet to it's core. Meanwhile, the one in 100 year events continues to strike. Notice the change in the title, this one is labeled 'The Past Month Or So' because I've been struggling to post within a week to two week time frame. I would like to bring these videos much sooner but working 2 jobs it's impossible. Your donations will help me get them up much faster. I would like to do this full time for all to see in a timely matter. I also do not have the extra money for my posts anymore for me to continue doing this legally. Donations have stopped a long time ago and I will have to switch to the free music which doesn't make for a entertaining video. *Donations for more of this groundbreaking and very entertaining series much faster. http://bit.ly/1l5QIzU Send By Email On Paypal HawkkeyDavisChannel@gmail.com Thanks for watching and pleas...
