DetailsWelcome back to 1 out of 5 – Would Recommend, where…I still haven’t watched animated Titanic yet.

DetailsHey, I decided to come back from vacation after all. I definitely enjoyed my time away and almost decided to retire my columns, but here I am, at least through the end of the year. At the end of the this year, I’ll have been doing these columns for ten (10) years. Can you believe…
