Berkeley, Wednesday, April 22, 2026 7:01 pm Sometimes we find pearls of wisdom right delivered to us from humble people, might be in an OK analogy we are delivered pearls through oysters, which probably was not that complicated to open.

Cuatro Rosas
Berkeley, Saturday, September 13, 2025 11:12 PM It is a beautiful song, written by Omar Geles, a king in the Vallenato Genre. It has been popularized by Jorge Celedon.
