most amusing pickup lines from men in new york city bars:
- my friends call me boner because i always have one
Hahaha, do pick-up lines ever work?
Actually, my friend and I went to a club during a Valentine’s Day event in which guys had keys, girls had locks, and if you could find your mate on the crowded dance floor you got some pretty nice prizes. Some guy approached my friend and she asked him, “Do you have a key?”
His response: “I’ve got the key in my pants.” My friend punched him and dragged me away. I almost died laughing.

Losing the night sky
The night sky it’s so different from the time we used to be kids, when sometimes in summer we looked at the stars, talked about random things or just waited to see the train pass on the horizon. Suddenly people grow up and forgot the sky existence because there is no time, life is busy, and when you magically remember you can look up there is no night sky at night because stars were annihilated by streets illumination.
Hmm, that’s creepy…Do lakes have any special meaning to you? I dont know much about your early life, but I wonder if it has any connection to the one back in Saijo…
I live in Minnesota, so of course lakes have meaning to me. I’m constantly surrounded by them (laugh) I’m also fairly sure some of these dreams took place before I went to Japan. Maybe it just seems more natural for me to be near a lake? It’s just that it’s always in the same place.
