I'm at a loss for good content as of late. Other than social commentary on the welfare state, Lisa Calderon, or baby diapers in the dumpster (none of which would be positive), all I've got is pimping local biz that I love.
I'm sitting right now at the Walnut Room, the coolest place within stumbling distance of our house, doing homework and drinking a tasty martini. Colians, have you checked this place out yet? Best happy hour in our area by far. Best sandwiches and pizza in our area by far. Cool staff and people. Good (non Latino) music. Live music even. Wonderful patio. Need I say more?
If you stop in as a result of reading this ask Bobby, Kristin, or one of the other friendly staffers to put something up on the "future's" board for the white devil at CNM so I know you gave it a try. Plus I need free drinks. You know as much as I do how much we're all paying for our tiny old houses in the 'hood.
You'll like it, I guarantee. If you don't, I'll paint over the graffiti on your dumpsters free for a year. Honest.

I just wanted to say I'm sad to not see any posts from you in a while. I know your blog was/is sometimes contentious, but I think it's a great addition to the neighborhood. Hopefully you'll find more to say soon!
Hi there! I just moved into the Cole Neighborhood right at 36th and Lafayette. Your blog has been a great resource in getting to know the area!
I also just followed you via twitter, I'm @Courier_New. Hope to meet up with you and chat for a while!
Wow, thank you both for your comments. I know it's been a while. While I still live in Cole, I travel now during the week and don't see as much action anymore. And honestly, my block, and the neighborhood has quieted down so much compared to the "old days" I don't have as much bitterness or material to write about. But not being here as much has definitely provided me some fresh perspective that hopefully will turn into some new posts. But most importantly, I'm glad you've found my ramblings here of benefit and/or enjoyment.
