I was rummaging around Crackbook a couple of days ago and came upon a link for an interview with Keanu Reeves from Esquire. So, click… the first paragraph… “He sits in the black leather booth of a Paris brasserie, a porcelain cup half full of cappuccino by his elbow, thumbing…
As the next step in “The Brainwashing of Karin”, I headed down to the Auto Show in downtown Seattle. I’d been on the fence for a few days, feeling the resistance. Coming up with reasons not to go. I can’t afford any of those cars! I haven’t driven in half…
