What Monday Night Wars?  For those that may not know, I am a big pro wrestling fan. A friend introduced it to me when I…

What do you complain about the most? Photo Credit: Adobe Stock Images I’m a millennial, so I complain a lot. However, there is one thing I do complain about more often than most things.

Well, I’m worried he will…

What would you do if you won the lottery? Photo Credit: Adobe Stock Images I have thought about this so much over the years, and it has changed every time, but I think I have finally decided what I would do.
