Chris Doelle The weather cools down and Chris sends out an Easter message.
Quantum of Coolness
April 9th, 2009 Chris Doelle I watched Quantum of Solace tonight and have to say that Daniel Craig still remains one of my favorite Bonds – if not THE favorite.

I wasn’t even trying to lose weight when it started to come off. [...]
Really? I hope you are not falling for this nonsense?
April 5th, 2009 Chris Doelle Am I the only one that finds the new GM “Total Confidence” ad campaign insulting?
