This week’s quest to find out how I fit into the big scheme of things started last Saturday when an older ticket taker–a man say in his late 60s or 70s–gave me two tickets to see Horrible Bosses. After I paid just $20 for the two tickets, I looked at the pricing because I knew …
If you are watching The Bachelorette this season then you know who Bentley is, and you know why he is a factor. As usual, something unprecedented happened in the Bachelorette house.
