GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR, TAKE 2

We’re approaching another 9/11 anniversary, and while some of the victims’ names begin to literally fade away, I feel as if I’m living with a family member who is not only an arsonist hell-bent on setting the neighborhood ablaze — our house included — but who is also a fire truck salesman.

I knew this Guy who opened a restaurant with the help of some People from Brooklyn. A disagreement resulted in the Guy asking the People from Brooklyn to leave the […]
