The Sopranos: Closer to Closure
We???re still not over the fact that Tony???s gone. We followed the show for years only to think that our cable went out in Chase???s cruel conclusion.

Pink Elephant Discoveries & What I Want in Men
The gloom, rain, lightening, and summer thunder did not keep people away from Pink Elephant last night, hands down my favorite douchette location in New York.

Your Boyfriend has an Alternate Identity: Part III
LC had a standard, English name. To make this entire explanation simpler let???s use John, which is what I called LC in the comedic stage play I wrote about our relationship.

Those of you who followed last month???s ???The Happiest Place on Earth??? saga will remember a man (Mr. LC ??? the Life Coach) that I met in Capri.

Benefits of Being Alone
A summer weekend spent alone in Manhattan can feel depressing. The sun???s ablaze and everyone but you is frolicking and making out in grassy Central Park.

Party Scars
Between the DJ???s shrieking siren-like music that depletes your hearing, the patrons cigarette smoke and the club???s fog machine which hinder your eyesight, and the mass-consumed alcohol that well, slows your brain to snail speed, I think it???s a miracle we all get home remotely intact at the end …

A Criminal Mind: The Finale
Being an expert criminal is all about calculating risk ??? and this is exactly what I did with Milan???s public transportation system. Every time I entered the bus or subway I asked myself the percent chance a would be roaming the area. For example, if it was a Sunday, no need to buy a ticket. Same …

A Criminal Mind: Part II
It was a sweltering July day and I merrily sauntered through a metro turn-style with my abused and invalid ticket.

A Criminal Mind
I once was an offender of the law, caught and fined for my crime. That???s right. It???s not something I???m proud of.

How to get EU Citizenship off the Back of a Truck: Part II
The caf?? Emilio asked me to meet him at was extremely generic, uninteresting, and practically empty. He had been so abrupt on the phone that I still had no idea if I was waiting for him inside, on the street or in his jeep.
