The front driver's side window of our Buick Century was smashed open tonight, less than fifty feet from our front door.
There wasn't even anything to steal, so they broke our cup holders.
The joke's on them, though... man, just think of ...Read More
Last night I dreamed I was at some music camp with thousands of musicians I'd never met.
On the first night, we all went to the beach just before sundown and started breaking off into groups/bands according to what kind of ...Read More
