Dangerously Living

by emertens | created - 15 Jul 2012 | updated - 03 Oct 2012 | Public

Don't trust tenants. Don't trust neighbors, Don't trust landlady's. Don't trust roommates. Don't trust your husband, or your wife. You're NOT safe!

As of August the 17th 2012, I cannot post (and may not be able to reply to) comments anymore, because I don't have, nor do I want, a Facebook account.
