a ramble about Victor Henriksen
"Everybody’s got a sob story, but not everybody becomes a killer."Victor Henriksen was in a total of only four episodes and only three of those while he was alive.

p.s.
I can't seem to find an lj journal style that I like. Where do you guys find those beautiful themes that you use? It's driving me crazy that I can barely stand to look at my own lj page. :| -
