Ok. Let me just state the obvious. Sean Penn and I will never cross paths and thus this post is all to make a larger point about the universe. Furthermore, I will state the second obvious fact. Sean Penn would probably have no interest in me and […]
A few years ago a work colleague advised me to just start talking to myself while on the train. See, no matter, I am always the person that other people chose to sit next to on a semi-crowded train. Without fail. It could be that I am […]
