This is a rather bipolar city.  We are the epicenter of politics that create chaos to so many, yet we thrive on the conservative nature.  Most of my new-found friends keep double lives.  I have to ask as to which they are in at the time: are you person A or B.  Example: my friend Dan (let's call him this) is a culinary genius and he has taken me to ( Read more... )

OMG, I just finished seeing "Be with me" on Netflix. Wow. No dialogue. It was just...I want to see it with you. The love pig demands it so.

Go watch it.
