"No Rules Managed Print Services" - Who Do You Think You Are?

2011 -

The Mafia, does not exist. Never has, except for in the movies.

The "Illuminati" is another example of propaganda and marketing. Fear motivates, just ask Little Red Riding Hood.



The Free Masons, Skull and Bones, Templars, The Thule Society, The Black Hand, and my personal favorite, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, these groups, these societies, whether real or imagined, were formed to fill a vacuum.

And nature abhors a vacuum.

Cowboys And Aliens

OK- I am not sure how I can figure MPS into this, so I won't even try.

James Bond, and Indiana Jones.

In the Western US fighting Aliens. From outer space.

I ain't kidding, either.

The cast is interesting, and I would smell flop, but, the director gave us Iron Man, Ron Howard is one of the producers and Spielberg is an executive producer.

Big, Friggin, Guns.

Coming July, 2011.
