Just one of the Guardians of the Galaxy #GuardiansoftheGalaxyEvent
This past week, I attended a press junket for the upcoming Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Before our interviews with stars of the movie, I joined the Guardians of the Galaxy, a thief, 2 thugs, an assassin, a maniac and ME – but we’re NOT gonna stand by as evil wipes out the galaxy. […]

5th Grade Graduate Wordless Wednesday
