A good mom teaches her child what he needs to know.
I used to be scared of Starbucks.
When I was a child, the only coffee we drank came from the coffee-maker. Its options were sugar and milk.
I don’t know why I never went into the coffee houses populated purely by […] Continue Reading…
Meanwhile, back at the fortune teller’s…
Simon took me back to see the palm reader. This time, though, I got her daughter.
For twenty bucks, she looked at my palm and spewed clichés at me for five minutes.

On the Radio Last Night
Last night I did the Nuestra Palabra radio show. Unfortunately, only a couple of people I know got to hear it. But, then, fortunately, Julio and I found the archived MP3 of it. So, if you didn’t get to hear it, go here, and then […] Continue Reading…
