We’re all alone in the dark universe. When you read that, does it bring on anxiety, depression, and a deep, drowning sense of dread? Yeah, me neither. I’ve never felt that way a day in my life. Because I have a secret weapon. I bet you do too. And I know how special our little, blue planet is. Sure, we’re alone in the dark … Read the rest…
A few years ago, Denzel Washington made a movie called The Equalizer. And then he made two more for the typical Hollywood trilogy. And apparently that was supposed to be it.
