All pain is relative
I’m on a plane to Chicago to attend to some business meetings for the next couple of days and…

Third floor
Last week in Los Angeles I stayed at The Culver Hotel, a six-story building erected in 1924. Much of the cast of The Wizard of Oz including all of the Munchkins stayed there during its filming. Apparently they were not all well behaved according to eve…
