Richard O’Barry, the dolphin trainer for the once popular TV show, Flipper, demonstrates a massive amount of courage in his gripping documentation of the fate… Read the Rest…

U2: 360 World Tour

I battled my way through traffic for 3.5 hours. I listened to practically every channel on my satellite radio trying to pass time. I even listened to the Spanish channel, Caliente, attempting to brush up on my español conversacional.  I watched drunken people get out of the car, run into the woods, pee, and run… Read the Rest…
