So ever since I saw Tropic Thunder, I’ve been taking a closer look at the star of the movie, in my humble opinion, Robert Downey Jr. He was extremely funny in the film. I just wanted to find out more about this talented actor. So I went to the best place to go — Youtube. [...]


I don’t think people understand that America is not some mystical place that we must battle out like a sports game. It’s a country. A country WE live in. A country that is affected by the government to the point where we are at the brink of a recession. A country where people, like you, [...]

So let me start this off by saying that I do not watch America’s Best Dance Crew religiously. I watch it every once in awhile when it just happens to be on my television screen. I have nothing against the show. I just always forget it’s on. However, I did get to catch most of [...]
