Finally back, and finally done dealing with Adelphia - it looks like we have at long last figured out all these recent problems - and they're replacing the modem tomorrow morning. I'll explain more in the notes.
And then, I logged onto haineshisway.com and I couldn't get into the discussion board - it had closed up the haineshisway section. I clicked on the + sign but nothing happened, but then I clicked on haineshisway and it came back the way it was supposed to be. The real question is, why was it closed up like that for the first time EVER?
I'll have plenty to say about City of Angels later. But, for now might I just say where in tarnation IS everyone? This is most unseemly and NOT the way we like to send out a month.
I won two other ashtrays from restaurants I used to go to as a kid, both from the same seller who had the ashtray from my father's restaurant. And both of these ashtrays are from places mentioned in the Kritzer books - Kelbo's and The Bagel. It frosts me that I didn't know about these ashtray things or this particular seller, as two weeks ago he had an ashtray from Casa Cienega, which features in the first Kritzer book. I've never seen anything from Casa Cienega - heaven knows what else this guy has had in the past.
