Fray Cafe 5 didn't have a theme, despite the constant recurrence of goats. It was not planned. Seriously. Goats are just part of life.

I digress.

The show ran from 8:30 until midnight, with featured speakers Kevin Smokler and Robert Nagle, and a stream of regular and first-time open mic performers.

Kevin shared a story about his first day as a journalist; Robert recalled his perils with cleanliness in Albania; Andrew confronted his fears about terror; Ryan encountered a car crash; Halcyon told a story about love and porn; Cinnamon shares how she got her name; Michael had sympathy for the goat; David found a family---and these are just a few of the true, personal stories that make Fray so wonderful---stories told by people like you.

Thanks to everyone who showed up to participate in Fray Cafe 5!
