I was just on a flight from the east coast back to Los Angeles and thus I had some time to work, pitter patter, and watch the Expanse. I had never seen the Expanse before but it was on some list of recommended science fiction shows. I like […]
I want to set one thing straight right off the bat. I am not writing this bit to get pity. Far from it. It is just a tale to tell. This past weekend I took my son to a birthday party. The young boy turned seven this […]
