Killing the killers

Not for the faint-hearted. Just a way of releasing the anger regarding the preventable death of my daughter resulting from the side effects of a drug now known to be responsible for over 400 deaths a year.

One-armed combat

Yet another of Julia's posthumous pieces (Overthetop1). Hard-hitting, but that's the way she was.

Well done Golden Boy. Much enjoyed.
I wonder how long storks survive and what happened to the one who delivered me to my unwilling mother?
