the beat goes on…another place burglarized this morning..El Telar, the weaving place at the corner of 5th ave sur and 7th calle…how much more does it take for someone to call a halt to this rash of shit?
the community of the old gringos who sit on the bench in the park in the morning lost one of their group…Richard, aka GQ for his lack of sartorial dress/appearance, bit the dust yesterday….internal stuff, heart, who knows for sure except he checked out.
Michos? closed for remodeling…expanding into what was the Herbalife space and going the full-on restaurant route with Neil Craig at the helm. He’s still looking/hoping/dreaming to find a Viking six burner range…so, if you’ve got one or know where there is one…you can name your price.
closings? yeah…Pitaya, the juice bar on 4th ave sur? gone…now a Budget Rentacar place..the Mango/Verde juice bar on 5th calle? at $3000USD a month,they’re sucking wind…the new Dutch crepe place into what was the short-lived ‘Lounge’ in the remnant of Pangea? steady but slow progress(dont’ forget the license!)
Da Vinci! added some nice lighting touches…way cool…it is so inviting(at least to me, especially when Claudia #1 is working…Monday-Tuesday…6pm +)..ok…tomorrow, I’m finally checking out/eating at Pappy’s BBQ on 6th Calle, by the Cactus Grill…11-4, Fri-Sat-Sunday…be there early or you won’t have leftovers..
La Sala going the ‘Ladies Drink Free’ routine…hey, it’s a ‘hook’…are you a lady? yep..have one..or three…El Muro morphing into an ‘after hours joint’….looks like Max and Company have settled down up/around Lanquin, of which I’ll be writing about tomorrow…Part Three of the latest dumb attempt to find stuff, guided by idiots….
ah…the Marimba reference? one of our own has his ‘story’ written in a book that I found at the American Legion library today…the writing sucks but the story is….illuminating…this town…chock fulla nuts and some great characters..should you wish to wonder about the nuclear energy plants in the You Ess of A…talk with Nuclear Hogan…scary stuff….imagine his hands on the red button..
Is Juan Calaveras or whatever it was still open/there?…on 1st avenida in what was Nokiate? this town…it changes daily..Joe Lada aka Bobby Darling and Moriah Sterling, playing Saturday night at Montecristos…in the Fuentes building on east 4th calle..he wasn’t sure if it was 7-9 or 8-10….Mike Chrisman and sweet lady friend! they look good together…stick around, ok?fine…SHIT…Sure Happy It’s Thursday!….let the weekend begin…go out and….whatever blows your skirts up..
