Rediscovering Heroes
 

Remember back in 2006? A simpler, more idealistic time. George W. Bush was still president. The top grossing film was Pirates of the Carribean. Twitter was something that one went “all a-“. And there was this brand new show, name of Heroes, that got so much buzz and good will that it seemed poised to […]
