As another year draws to a close, I'm once again thinking about how much time is flying by, more and more quickly the older I get.

Peter Quill is an earthling living and working in space
In an interview about SNL creatives, it was said that actors who write prefer Strange characters in a normal world. While writers will write pieces about Regular people in a bizarre world. I have no idea how true that is ...
