About Me

MWF seeks other fun-loving types for late afternoon beers on a garden patio, long walks on the playa, late nights anywhere, good food, costume parties, gossiping, chasing art cars, and generally raising the level of inappropriateness at all times. fellow dictators are especially welcome to respond. fun-haters need not apply.click here
