is it coincidence that Father’s Day rolls around a month after Mother’s Day?…for example, all the brides that went down the aisle this weekend might be sharing some news in about a month from now…’gee, guess what? ‘
El Caminate/Mirador pulling out all the stops for Friday’s opening of the ‘Variety Show’…if this were Vegas or San Francisco it’d be all too easy to find ‘performers’…i know too many…whatever the results, it’s gotta be amusing…ran into Alex of Fusion this morning…off to the coast with the family for a few days…whence back, expect some interior changes and some menu alterations. Jason of Lava pumped about Thursdays opening of the upscale/upper level burger emporium over Ixnay…’has some different ideas…i’d planned on going to the beach also this week but with Lava’s Thurday Grand Opening and Week #2 of El Muro’s May Madness of free drinks…still trying to figure out how I took a header going home on Thursday night..’should had the cane, i s’pose or the german shepherd with the handle on the collar…’been forgetting to ask Piano Mike how the studio sessions are going…ah! newsflash from Mezcal Central…quantities of Senor Rexers most sublime product are in copious supply at Cafe No Se..(that means they gotta big stash of mezcal) ‘been trying to contact a hotel in Monterrico for a week..tried their ‘contact form’ and also their email address…no answer…one of my personal criteria for selecting domiciles when traveling is their response time to such inquiries…I figure that they’re serious about biz..no names noted, just a raised eyebrow or two..one would think that biz on the beach could use some attention…one would..didn’t do the pub quiz last night..buried in a book…notice that the other venue doesn’t seem to be advertising a quiz night anymore..after the Byrne Show all else is dogmeat..a few folks still waiting for their replacement ATM cards and nope..i’m never using an ATM in this town again..tomorrow? Mother’s Day again…another shot, another chance, another buncha flowers..see you around town later, up one street and down another..if you know any ‘performer’s send em over to Peter the G…’haven’t heard anything about a rehearsal so this might just be a bit chaotic(and fun) Lights out at Kafka? only a candle in the doorway, power on next door…Hector,laughing and smiling again…reminiscing about the days of her and the restaurant project in Joco and firing several people..he’s open on Mondays again..Da Vinc? looking better all the time, as the bits and pieces come together and they’re adding sandwiches to the menu..all 3 claudias and LM on deck tonight(yep, she’s as incandescent as ever)…the thunder/lighting this afternoon was blissful…cleaned the air, washed the dog shit off the sidewalks…Whiskey Den! new bartender and a lot better looking than Allen…of the feminine persuasion..she, not Allen..Pangea doing a few tables, no body else seemed to be doing much biz…Lava? Shaun raving about the smoked bacon from the Lake…Jason raving about the seating, chairs and piles of construction debris…don’t worry…Thursday will roll around and it’ll all be just fine..Caffe Opera! bringing back Adan the cuban super pianist! tomorrow, Tuesday…’guess they figured that he was responsible for the uptick in business..go hear some classical tunes..and a belated Happy Birthday to Lex Cargo(last saturday)…guess he wanted to keep it quiet(and he did) but then…he carries his age very very well..
