My life was far, far, better never knowing that the eternal nimrod David Hasselhoff did his best (and worst) to destroy a very well-respected bad-ass in the Marvel comic universe. The Nick Fury: Agent of Shield movie simply has to be the biggest POS I have ever had the unfortunate … Read more

I need to find a police scanner or ham radio … Read more
