Captian C...Did he at least offer you some Quick?
Did not to me....

Next time he shows up for coffee with a little chocolate mustache...I say we pants him and throw him into the mall.

oh wait....then he might be confused with the newbies.
Will have to come up with something else I guess...

(sigh)

Fisherman's wharf? Pier 39? Fog City Diner? Maritime Museum?

But OH, you must mean the Irish COffee place, Buena Vist Cafe near the Cable Car Carousel right? Smile Love that place, touristy but such a nice stop on a cold foggy August day

Bingo!

Buena Vista!

Sat at a table with Burt Bacharach one night.....of all people.

2 of us had a table of 4.

He came over and asked if he could join our table.

Surreal....

Kept on wanting to whistle "Raindrops keep falling on my head...."
