The music becomes suspenseful, and the actor on screen starts to creep around a corner... she pops out with a golf club, expecting there to be a dangerous stranger standing there, not expecting her... only to discover no one there. The music stops. She looks relieved. But you know better. And just as she starts to walk back toward from where she came, you see a shadow dart by, and the dangerous stranger pounces, and she screams, and you scream/laugh/get excited. If that sounds like your idea of …

This is a group for whoever wants to get together to learn more about the Spanish Language, Spanish speaking countries and Latino culture overall.  Classes can be expensive, but I have found that a group environment is important in learning and practicing Spanish. So I created this group as an alternative.

This group (new!) was created for single black women and Asian men, in their 20s to late 40s, to get together. I've noticed that although we don't see this interracial combination quite too often, there are certainly many black women and Asian men interested in getting to know one another romantically for simple dating, possible long-term relationships or even good friendships. Additionally, I had to create a group like this that catered to those in the LA area. Within 100 miles of LA, I saw no …

Now that you're a few years in, have you gotten the feeling that you may have accidentally sold your soul to “the man” for a chunky paycheck? --And now you lay awake at night wondering how you'll ever ge …
