Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez – My Review
I watched the three part documentary Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez which is about the late New England Patriots tight end and convicted murderer (well kind of) Aaron Hernandez. Aaron Hernandez is an interesting person to say the least. His story is almost Shakespearean. I remember Aaron Hernandez’s football career very well and I’veContinue reading “Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez – My Review”
Hot Girl Summer: “Darkness to Light”
Summer 2019 is behind us and you know what, I didn’t do a darn thing. I didn’t visit one beach, pool or amusement park this year.

My Disenchantment and Disappointment with NFL Football and it’s Players
I have been a sports fan for a long time. I have loved it and pro sports has brought a lot of enjoyment into my life. I admire the athleticism and grace of the athletes.

Tell Me What You Want: the Problem with Modern Feminism
The problem with modern feminism is that it’s hard to understand what feminists want.

I’veContinue reading “Tell Me What You Want: the Problem with Modern Feminism”
