Saved Again
How many times have we be saved from complete annihilation and never even realized it? I didn’t believe for even a second that there would be an apocalypse today. Just because one calendar came to an end, didn’t mean that the world would. But perhaps we came close. Maybe The Doctor saved us once again.…

Know Your History 32 – The Famous Sample
That record right there is the source of inspiration for dozens and dozens of rap songs. In fact, it has even been sampled in rock songs, pop songs, television commercials, and pretty much everywhere you hear music. Within the first twenty seconds of the song, I was able to pick up two different sources where…

Tallest Silver Brings Comics to Life

12-12-12 The Last Triple Repeating Date
I was on Twitter last night and saw this tweet. It’s hard to believe that today is the last repeating date we will see. That’s why that tweet really hit me. I also like the message of it. Do something important! Definitely words to live by, not just on the Triple 12, but every day.…
