… 3 Weeks Earlier

Posted on August 17, 2018 by Doni Chamberlain

You know how sometimes an opening movie scene will abruptly show some graphic, what-the-hell moment with zero context, such as a dazed, sunburned person floating on a hunk of ship-wreckage in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by blood-thirsty sharks?… Continue Reading →

Two Guys on a Mission

Posted on November 25, 2016 by Jim Dowling
