A year or so in the life of suburban twentysomething Gen X roommates during the age of Eddie Vedder, OJ Simpson, and Ross and Rachel. March 20 - Can I Get a Witness? Wow The miracles that happen to me never cease. Today, a frail elderly woman named Janet came to my door. She had had a fistful of pamphlets with names like "Awake!
