Dinner at teh neighbors

[randy_byers]

holyoutlaw and juliebata invited Denys and me over for dinner, so we walked to the center of the universe yesterday evening, critiquing the neighborhood along the way. (The traffic calming devices on 36th have not calmed the traffic. The old Fremont News space has been taken over by Sonic Boom's vinyl section. The old Empty Space Theater space is still empty.)

Surely you'd seen them before? They qualify as hoary old chestnuts of the web.

My name isn't Shirley, I'm not a whore, and, yes, Julie too was appalled by our ignorance about old chestnuts. Guess I download more new porn than old chestnuts.

[holyoutlaw]

You're more than welcome. It was a treat to us to have you. Yeah!

I miss the Empty Space theatre. And still miss some of the old junk shops that were replaced by upscale clothing stores. I'm glad that a local store has moved into the Fremont News space, even though I really really miss Fremont News.

We also have a lot more restaurants to choose from, plus a great video store, a used bookstore, a used record/cd store, and an office building with a propeller beanie on it. It ain't all bad at all.

And of course Brouwers. Brouwers is pretty cool, even if I *still* miss the Trolleyman.

[randy_byers]

Yes, but now the Trolleyman is a fricking chocolate factory, which is pretty cool in itself!

That dinner sounds good!

So what we gonna do Thurs before Corlfu, m,man?!

[randy_byers]

Beats the hell out of me. You're getting there on Wednesday, so I'm relying on you to scout out the prospects. I arrive 4:20pm, by the way. Don't know how long it'll take me to get to the hotel.

Wahey! text me! I be something arcane then +44 7946 644256.

I don't own a texting device, believe it or don't.
