Where I live is basically a rich, middle class society. A lot of Spanish and Blacks live there and many whites. There are fights sometimes, but not often. Usually it’s quiet and has no loud people; but hey, it’s New York.

One interesting fact I have about myself is my ability to listen and patience.

My recorder, Edwin the Great, listens to everything, has a puffy hat to keep him from getting wet and stops and goes when it’s told to do so.
