The concert wasn’t officially titled “Constant Rain” even though it was part of a small tour to promote Jay’s recently released album. The

Comparing a Sports Car and Minivan I have always been a sports car lover, but when my family increased in size to the point that finding a sports car that would meet my needs would be almost impossible, I decided to consider a minivan.
