Ralph Macchio. New friends, new faces...Pirates. Ninjas. Bartendars. Comedians. Cooks. Writers. Geeks. Gurus. Women with a soul and men with a conscience. People who aren't afraid of condiments, dive bars, reckless abandon and beans. Egon Spengler. People to enjoy the EXTRAordinary in the most ordinary facets of my days with. Someone who appreciates a good meatball or the way a street lamp looks at night. Bedknobs and broomsticks aside, someone who can laugh with me, at me and themselves. People who are HONEST with me and themselves. People not of the proverbial "bargain bin". People who like cheese. People who know what to do in the VIP area...
