By Bwog Staff on Aug 12, 2012 23 Comments

At Le Monde’s bar, a portly man—apparently a manager of sorts—blowing haute air with two old, midwestern friends who were visiting the city.

The Downtown Express

By Bwog Staff on Aug 08, 2012 10 Comments

Two, twenty-something co-workers—a plain, yet handsome, white man, and an Asian woman with good enough English—unexpectedly meet as they board at 96th street. They talk.
