Bernie is the best candidate for president in my lifetime. Hillary, aside from being a woman, is just more of the same the insiders are always shoving down our throats.

As Episode VII of the Star Wars saga hits cinemas and begins a brand new chapter in the mythology of the galaxy far, far away, here’s a timely revisit to all the existing films in the magical universe Uncle George made. Even die-hard fans have mixed feelings about the six existing films, particularly in regard […]
