Looooooong over due, but like the man himself a Freshfive is neva ever outta style.. Jason Hollis' FreshFive hits the shitranet and a few parked cars along the way. Hollis..a Freshface Legend....an Artist ....A Cultivator, A Motivator, A Liquidator, a CoCreator and bad vibe Eliminator.

The FRESHFIVE with JASON HOLLIS

...

*1. How many Bloody Mary's does it take to make the pain go away?*

...

From the sage advice of a pro; it takes three. One automatically leads to two everyone knows that but with self confidence, faith and a fair amount of tabasco two moves to three with a double shot and the pain vanishes like a thief in the night. Three is the magic number for sure.

...

2. What is the Moral to this story.

Three Blind Mice .. See how they run.

...

Simple: Don't get caught.

...

3. Three options... you must pick one or you go bye bye.

*a. Catch a chicken running wild on Sunset blvd while wearing boxing gloves and yelling i love Kanye!!.*

*b. Work in the clothing department at the Wal-mart in Boise Idaho for a month , with a dress code which resticts you to wear only what they sell.*

c. *Be a Life coach to a transgender complex havin' Maria Carey for free, for 8 months or until the operation.*

Well Option B is simply out of the question - a Target in Palmdale maybe but a Wal-Mart in Boise, no thank you. Option C is also null because I don't work for free; although is does seem like a fair amount of interesting work. So with a very steady mind my choice is absolutely Option A, plus it would reach my target audience on YouTube.

...

4. Name one thing that if given the ability...... you would do to change the world.

...

Eliminate poverty.

...

5. Fill in the ___________'s

...

People have become _______ *so unaware of their own self-potential* _______ that when they are ______ *unable to add something to the material, intellectual, and moral well-being of the place in which we live it makes us all look like an audience of sheep* _______ who have no business being called ____ *to the stage_____ even if Bob Barker says ____ *come on down_____!

Time to put Bu-Jeus through the FreshFive ringer, He might be small, but mentally he's a power lifter and can have you in the sweaty palm of his hand before you ask the first question.. Not only is Bu-Jesus. a.k.a Brandon DeRoche is a known butterfly knife expert, gang sign language specialist,and has also recently developed the ability to peel fruit without ever even touching it. So look but dont touch what Bu-jesus is up to over at his digs at The Biggest Label Ever and Cause Cast.

Driving a beat up benz and living by the beach.
