Shoe Repair There is this old shoe repair shop in my neighborhood. The dude that runs the place is in his late seventies. His son, who’s in his forties is going to take over I guess when he dies. I saw this PBS documentary on YouTube. It started out as a human interest […]
The Magic Pendant
Shoe Salesman I have a friend who works in a shoe store. He’s worked there for over ten years. When he started he thought it would only be a part time job. A lot of big bookstores are closing. For obvious reasons. A lot of retail is in trouble. But bookstores even more so […]
Valentines Day Cons And Jesus
Gorgeous Japanese Woman I used to know this Japanese woman in her mid sixties. You could tell that when she was younger, she must have been absolutely, drop dead gorgeous. She told me once about her husband. When I met her, her husband had already died. But he would love hanging out in these […]

Criminal Power Structures
Cute Neighbor I have this really cute neighbor. I came home and there were a bunch of cops outside her apartment. Not just regular cops, but a couple of plainclothes cops as well. I saw her talking to them, she lives alone, so I don’t think that anybody died. I was at this bar […]
