Biblically correct angels!!!

Beyond tragic

Anthony Sowell, Cleveland, Ohio. It's bad....

For an excellent and cathartic KDrama on this topic, I recommend Tomorrow. …..A) the message is good. B) the storylines are not serial but anecdotic. C) Rowoon is sweet, fccking hot , and a very compelling actor. Highly recommend……..excuse the long post, trying to cover up bigotry. Below.

When the bottom line is always money, not humanity.

It’s a tragic, yet fascinating story. There were 16 survivors after more than two months stranded in freezing conditions. I highly recommend the book “Alive” by Piers Paul Read https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alive:_The_Story_of_the_Andes_Survivors

Wasn't she obsessed with the gorilla or something weird like that? She thought they were in a relationship maybe?

cyberstroller?

Disgusting.

Are these nasty creatures out now?

I thought it'd be a nice little surprise for them. I do some of my best work when they're asleep, lean them up against the pillow. If I didn't they'd look like Stig of the dump. They call me the midnight barber.

Their handwriting is a helluva lot better than mine.

I can understand being upset about the divorce but leaving your children?

Health conscious.

Ok...I know Evel Knievel is probably not known by most people born after 1990ish, but if Evel advised you something was too dangerous...man, you really should have listened. It's like a polar bear telling you not to get in the water because it's too d**n cold.

You can find the broadcast on YouTube. It’s… creepy

Wikipedia: "...[he] s****************d, m******d, and mutilated at least fifty-two women and children between 1978 and 1990 in the Russian SFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, and the Uzbek SSR. Chikatilo confessed to fifty-six murders; he was tried for fifty-three murders in April 1992. He was convicted and sentenced to death for fifty-two of these murders in October 1992, although the Supreme Court of Russia ruled in 1993 that insufficient evidence existed to prove his guilt in nine of those killings. Chikatilo was executed by gunshot in February 1994."
