Like a suitcase packed with everything but the kitchen sink, my blog is a place to talk movies, books, current events, pop culture, travel, modern love, and includes flash fiction. A list of categories can be found to the right.
Don't forget to stand on corners with suitcases in your hands (homage to Lou Reed and his song "Sweet Jane"). You never know what's around that corner, but it will surely be an adventure.

Obama's First 48 Hours Cause a London Train Station to Erupt in Spontaneous Dance
London train stations are usually crowded with people rushing to work, looking tired and forlorn. However, on this particular morning at 11 o'clock, it was a different story.
News of Obama's plan to close Gitmo and end torture caused this busy Liverpool train station in London to erupt in spontaneous dance.
Just kidding. Although it is a rehearsal for the actual advert, the impromptu crowd reaction and participation are priceless.
I love the old grannies who participate and the guy with the funky mod hairdo.
