Without Seeming To Care At All

By Max Sydney Smith

Nearly everyone who works in the bar is trying to make it as an artist or something. We are trying to make it as dancers, writers, shoe makers and DJs, actors, tattooists, costume designers and developers. We do not care about the bar and yet we find we cannot help but care a little.
This is the story of how we became an odd family. In it you will also find lots of smaller stories, about rescuing a nest of swan eggs, pulling a corpse from the canal, and giving birth to half a watermelon.
