June 8th - Love is the Context

I’m writing, conceiving, directing a 1/2 hour drama and dance production this Sunday during some of the Mosaic gatherings: Pasadena at 9:30am and the Mayan at 6:00 and 8:00pm.

  • Alan Luu (facebook) in Recovery: It's cool I guess, that I don't have to deal with contacts…but man, sometimes in life you just expect more. I want to be able to see through walls or something. Read signs from a mile away, etc etc. But for what it is, I guess it's cool.
