Your avatar reminds me of something I saw this morning: I got to the park to exercise a little before nine. A production company was setting up in the parking lot to do a film shoot. I just ignored them and went about my business. When I was finished and walking back to my car, a craft service guy was making bacon wrapped hot dogs for the crew. A small boy with a wad of money in his hand was pestering the hot dog chef to sell him one. He tried to explain to the kid that these hot dogs were for the crew. The kid wasn't having it and finally the cook relented and said "Okay, okay. I'll take your money!"

So, a gal from CA and her French husband own it. Alejandro Escoveda's daughter was bar backing there last night, too. She was cool! A friend of mine is good friends with the owners and told me about his daughter! I was shocked! They also had a one-woman band playing psychedelic music with a theremin and guitar tape! She sounded great!
