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 […]
The abandoned buildings throughout their neighborhood were sketchy with rats, possibly raccoons and crazed drug-addled people milling within them. Yet their claustrophobic heatless thin-walled apartments were no safer. They would go down the stairs carefully to not draw attention to themselves. Not that anyone was looking […]
