No Photos!
Nothing worse than people questioning your intent, especially when the exposure would do them good!! Annoying indeed. As if they are celebrities and you prying paparazzi wishing to exploit them. I'll bet if you were wearing a press badge they would have fallen all over themselves to have you film them and their wares.— October 20, 2010 5:46 p.m.
Packing Heat (and Granola)
I'm glad you turned them in. Chances are if you hadn't Bruinetta's cubs would not have a mother anymore. Good job and great story!!— October 20, 2010 10:39 a.m.
Cowles Mountain Hikers Disregard Main Trail
Thanks, Joan for getting the word out. This is hands down my favorite place to go hiking in San Diego. I was just out at Torrey Pines last weekend and remarked to a friend how they do such a great job making sure that people understand how sensitive the habitat is and how I wish Cowles had a way to enforce hikers to stay on the trails. I have seen people brazenly cut their own swaths and it makes me wonder if it is just plain ignorance, arrogance, or the destructive combination of both. Signage would be a great place to start. Many people do not instinctively know they are doing wrong. They have to be told. And maybe a sign-up notification posted at the trail-heads to give hikers information on how to volunteer to help restore the damage back to its original condition. Just knowing that it doesn't fix itself may convince a few to stay on trail.— October 20, 2010 8:40 a.m.

Tony, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TA YA!! I prefer my drunk on a bagel with lox and capers and a delicate schmear.— October 19, 2010 6:43 p.m.

I'm not so sure that classical music can't be cool. Beethoven's 5th has been copied by rock musicians for decades for a reason. He was the original rock star.— October 18, 2010 7:34 p.m.

Well, I was going to point that out that Chad was only doing his job and is an equal opportunity party crasher, but it sounds like his party-goers were a well-behaved bunch of revelers who were kind enough to include him in their choice of after-party location. To pooh-pooh their choice of Bluefoot would have been terrible party crasher etiquette, as would have been turning down a try at "the Donger".— October 18, 2010 7:18 p.m.

It's every vegetarian's dilemna!! If they could just make fake bacon that did not taste like, well, fake bacon...Carnitas is impossibly cute - I want to scoop him up and take him home. Are there any restrictions on owning a pet pig?— October 18, 2010 11:02 a.m.

I hear you, Indie. I'm just sort of a party and let party kind of girl. Of course, I can afford (and I use that word in the least-pretentious way possible because I could not for the life of me come up with something else and I also get the irony of the disclaimer;) to say that as I sit at my computer in the bar-free soccer-mom bedroom community area of Point Loma, where nary a hipster nor punk dare tread. The punkiest I get these days is wearing my Ramones T-shirt to Vons.— October 18, 2010 7:59 a.m.
