Cast No Shadow

Can anyone believe Blagojevich? Claiming its a bipartisan conspiracy against him on national TV in a desperate attempt to sway potential jurors? Seriously, he should be on VH1's Tool Academy. Of course, I'd be upset too if I had hair that bad. We scored the (now sold out) preorder of the Tenacious Toys exclusive Silver Winston from Kathie Olivas. Its only limited to 200. The only way to get one now will be the secondary market or attend NYCC. We went out this weekend to see 13-time nominated The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
