Just wrapped up watching the new Highwaymen movie on Netflix. The movie is about the two former Texas Rangers who brought down Bonnie and Clyde. I wouldn’t necessarily call it an action movie, due to the lack of action. It’s more of a story of the hunt and how they tracked down Bonnie and Clyde, […]

Ah, supplements — to the uninitiated, they seem like powdered steroids dispensed via that obnoxious shaker the religiously “fit” among us are always carrying around the office instead of a coffee cup.
