Friday Sinema: Silence is Cool!

Thursday Thoughts: Universal Casting
Once again, the Universe hits the nail on the head when it comes to both real life and the imaginary lives that writers create to people the worlds they create. I have to admit, there’s a reason I enjoy–mostly–shopping at … Continue reading
