Sorry friends for being away a bit. But open heart surgery on a friend has

not gone to well. However I wanted to drop in to give you this to think about. Maggies Way Maggie took a needle and stuck it in her arm. Maggie lost reality and all of her charm.

Think your neighborhoods the exception?

Playgrounds of the Night City streets grow darkened and the rulers of the night set in. For the innocent of the city nights once again the chaos begins.
