Juan Gregorio Regino - I Know the World's Tongue

Sorry about the blanket statement on Californians. When I get back to the middle of the country, I turn a bit hostile towards the kindness level on the coasts. I like people pleasant. Kill me.

I met the sweetest woman named Sandy on a plane yesterday. She told me she lost her husband (to a heart attack), daughter (to an overdose), and granddaughter (to suicide). All in 2 years. She bought herself a beach cruiser bike in pink (because her daughter and granddaughter love pink) and she's going to ride it around her neighborhood every evening this Fall.
