In my memory, there's a moment when we're sitting alone at The Owlery in the window booth overlooking the square. It's the first time that I realize how cheap a pitcher of PBR is, and of course it's you who pointed it out to me when you suggest it as...

Come the end of the month he thought about a lot of things. But one thing he thought a lot about was the money that got direct-deposited into his bank account. Soon he would not care about this event as it would become just a regular part of life, like...

I grew up in a small town where rumor has it many still don't lock their doors at night. Such a place offers little opportunity to someone like myself. But in the city, there's always somebody who needs something done in the shadow of time. Something important that can't be...
