ocean-beach/holler -- Ocean Beach Holler

Cool - my neighbor tried to talk me into sticking around for the raffle last night, but I just blasted through, grabbed some groceries and bailed. Looks like Lynn made out, though!

South side of a north/south street? The west side would be near the gardens, the east side would be athletic fields...

We speak of pom-poms

Ah, cheer competitions...and cheer parents. My daughter wanted to be a cheerleader once (Mom wanted her to be a cheerleader), but after a year of practices, buying uniforms, accessories, more accessories, fancy hair bows, competition entries, more hair bows, hotels, more hair bows, makeup for 8 and 9 year-olds, and more hair bows, I think we're on a more enlightened path.

Tusk and Grain nixed by 'Nado

National Association of Theatre Owners President asks Hollywood to make fewer R-rated films

How old is that ratings poster at the end? Love that the rabbit too scared to see PG13 shows up at the X-rated flicks...

Beer of the Week: Aleman/Two Brothers/Stone DayMan Coffee IPA

This is some really good stuff - I was intrigued by the coffee/IPA combo and picked up a bottle the day it hit my local shop's shelf...went back the next day for another couple bottles before they sold out.
