I was just about to order tickets for Dracula Untold and thought about the movies that we saw this summer: I feel like I enjoyed this summer more than previous ones because the movies were highly entertaining.

What makes a book a classic?
Towards the end of every year I work on my list on intentions. I do this no matter what and I work on those lists all year because, well, I just don’t want to be the kind of person with a larger list of regrets than accomplishments. I know that over the next year, one…

Politics, Smut Peddling and My Year of Ups and Downs
Politics and My Real Life I will go ahead and get it out of the way. For those that know me, I know you are surprised that I have been silent on the matter. That is strictly because I have been so damn busy. Here goes–I am not sure why people even CONSIDER voting against…
