In Like Flynt

Happy Tuesday, crime slicksters. It's time once again to take a trip to the dark side, where the girls are hot, the drinks are cold, and the hardboiled-pulp-noir action is non-stop, right here, at the coolest crime joint in cyberspace ... at That Killing Feeling.

When I tell them I have a twin,
they’ll shit bricks.

Got a nice ring to it.

So what are you gonna do

CHERRY
