“Go back to your church!” “Boys, this is my church! And if you don’t think Christ is down here on the waterfront, you’ve got another guess coming.” *** I hinted at this on the “About” page, but I’m giving full warning now: I’m a classic movie buff, and us classic movie buffs, we’re a little strange.
