The biggest creative curse is having impeccable taste, being ridiculously skillful, having an uncompromising vision, and having wildly ambitious ideas, but not having enough money to fund them or enough time to make shit happen.
Highly intelligent and endlessly adaptable, Pied Crows (Corvus albus) are opportunistic feeders, eating everything from insects and fruit to carrion.
Remarkably intelligent, they have learned to thrive wherever people live.

"The Kano red area where the prostitutes are male" — Prime People, 1988
"In the Sabon-Gari area of Kano are four streets: Abadie, Freetown, Santgiwa and Weatherhead.
"This is a Kano red area which is different from red areas all over the world in one unique feature. The prostitutes with light make-up, feminine-looking clothes and who effect feminine voices are males.
"They are dan-daodus, who, unlike regular homosexuals, peddle their male flesh, not for fun, but for cash.
"And every evening, these streets are filled with different cars coming to pick a dan-daodu or a girl, depending on the patron's tastes or choice.
"Dan-daodu is an Hausa name for homosexual."
