More Hairstyles
If you’re unable to look away from hair like I am, well then you’re just going to have to watch “Perry Mason” (Original series with Raymond Burr; you can watch the newer series set in the 1930s for hair as well, but there is only one season of that—I hope more shows up—but there […]
OK, I Guess Sometimes I Do Doodle…
A couple months ago I seemed to be living through my own Brendan Gleeson film festival.
