Stirring The Soul
Just ate a plate of pig knuckles in Munich. Now drinking a beer and watching German women’s soccer on tv while MGMT plays in the background. About to see a Swedish coming of age film that’s part of the film fest. You?
How do you leisure?
Important question: For anyone familiar, do you know if the “shoe mile” that used to be 8th Street in Manhattan relocated anywhere else?
