As Sequels Go, It’s A Happy Medium
Adam Sandler was pretty well known on the Sony lot as a pretty good hang, especially from those who worked for him and his partners at his Happy Madison production company. Cordial and welcoming to just about everyone, rarely working late hours so that he could be home for his family, and always willing to
The MCU Takes First Steps Toward Recovery

Fee Fi FOFO
I get both amazed and agitated when I notice what seems to stick beyond the usual lifecycle of a few hours in this world of instant gratification and entitled ADD sufferers who have made sober-curiosity and mushroom/cannabis elixirs at $10 a can ubiquitous enough for even someone as seasoned as moi to be aware that
