But that didn’t mean your retinas were safe from being burned. Dressed as…well…I couldn’t really tell you what the f*ck is going on here except for that love is blind and it grows an unkempt beard when it’s happy. Read the rest of this entry »

Which makes the NBA playoffs the hot ticket, the intensity picks as the O’Brien trophy is the ultimate prize. Read the rest of this entry »
