Abridged Script to BLACKHATS
This is an attempt to reconstruct the script of the movie BLACKHATS, which I watched on the plane ride home and was completely baffling in its badness. I rented it for $6 and there's an hour of the flight left, so I may as well use it to entertain myself.

Facing the Dragon
I finally finished up my new painting project! The brave adventuring party faces off against the most dangerous foe of all. (Unless you count my cat, worst nightmare of any miniature.)
