Puffy's, an old hang-out revisited. Still the same but the killer juke-box is gone.



From a roof-top, downtown.



Sure sign of Spring: Ramps. I didn't buy any, went with Spring Garlic instead.



Flowering Pear trees almost in full bloom.

Film Noir weekend includes this one. Raymond Burr plays a heavy. Fred MacMurray is OK. Claire Trevor excels. Of course, I also watched Double Indemnity.



Walter Neff: Dear Keyes, I suppose you'll call this a confession when you hear it... Well, I don't like the word confession, I just want to set you right about something you couldn't see because it was smack up against your nose. You think you're such a hot potato as a claims manager; such a wolf on a phony claim... Maybe y'are. But let's take a look at that Dietrichson claim... accident and double indemnity. You were pretty good in there for awhile Keyes... you said it wasn't an accident, check. You said it wasn't suicide, check. You said it was murder... check.



Beer for the weekend provided by Puffy's.


Joe Bataan the King of Latin Soul. Back on tour.



Gotta love it.
