The world is my television. The city streets of New York provide tons of fantastic viewing opportunities. Walk down any street and you are bound to catch some type of surprise. Part of my viewing pleasure entails looking at couples and trying to figure out their dynamic. Everything […]
Today, is the long-awaited (perhaps dreaded) election day in the United States. And, I am going to share a random story. Seemingly so. I tend to digress much a story about spackle is just right for today. Yes, spackle. That goey thing you use to fill up holes […]
