Bummer: Oakland's wonderful Le Cheval is closing tonite -- apparently their landlord is one horrible bitch.

Happy Thanksgiving, all!

Peter Hartlaub is very cool.

Read this with great amusement not an hour ago, as earlier this evening we debated the merits of jellied cranberry sauce with our dinner guest. I stand firm on the side of approval. Nothing like it.
Let's get right to it.

You'll notice from the sign that this used to be an H. Salt Fish and Chips:



I used to stop there in 72-73 on the way to seeing the Dead at Winterland.  I always considered fish a good brain food, necessary for a long night in the zone.
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

I don't know the H. Salt chain, so I googled around to see what an H. Salt sign would look like... and by Jove, Geoff is on it!
