Wizard World Comic Con

  A couple of weeks ago, I texted my friend Tony.  Tony and I met at UNT, University of North Texas, and served with college students at a local church in Denton Tx.  Our wives were college roommates as well as sorority sisters.  We go way back.  I was reaching out to TK, aka Korean […]
