5 Second Movie Review: The Secret of the Grain
January 12, 2009 in 5 Second Movie Review
By BeRightBack
So: the grain is couscous, and the secret is love, integrity, grit, and intense, intense belly-dancing.

Hello Internet Reader
Over the weekend Wordsmoker is being migrated to a different host. This will hopefully go smoothly. When it re-awakes from it’s slumber, it will look different, and will be enabled with a snazzy new commenting system.
