I can remember thinking about my day ahead as I walked down 23rd street this morning. I’d go the gym, and then get home in time for open mic night at Ristra. I walked into work at 8:45, the same as always, and sat at my desk [...]

When I was a kid, the vehicle of choice for child molesters, kidnappers, etc was always a white van. The schools would send notices home to parents telling them that some men in a white van were seen approaching kids. I’ve found this to be true for other regions of the country as well. Perhaps [...]

Today they were handing out bottles of Volvic Water at the PATH. I’ve seen this brand before but I’ve never purchased it.

They finally turned on the traffic lights this week by the PATH station. Except, I thought it was standard procedure to have the lights on blinking yellow for a few days before they turned them on? On Monday evening, as I walked out of the path station I wouldn’t have even noticed they were on [...]
