Robert Conrad and Mike Hoare in one day? Damn.

Even sadder was reading about Conrads DUI accident from a few years back which led to the death of a 26 year old victim and greatly contributed to his own. Clearly being a merc is good, clean living that promises longevity if you can get to it.

Here's a music video from Mad Mike days, NSFW or weak stomachs. I really can't believe this is on youtube, watch it fast if so inclined.

Wars in Africa, still going strong.

At least a dozen by my count right now. With a couple more potentially on the way, after or during some elections.
