I found myself at a fiction reading tonight at The Book Cellar on N. Lincoln. This story was easily the highlight of the evening.

The sound of happiness accompanies the ukulele wherever it goes.

This has certainly made my pre-Halloween Friday. It gets real at 3:40 mark when Ann Curry reprimands an Ewoks for drinking Vodka, which is proceeded by an Ewok moonwalking and humping Al Roker’s leg. I shit you not. The segment producers must have been raising hell backstage. Ah, the joys of live TV…
This is outrageous.
We had a similar soda pop shop open up in Lincoln and it’s such a delight to visit. I’d love to check out this guy’s store. It’s so wonderful that he does business primarily with other companies his size. He’s got a lot of moxie. This is a great video.
From YouTube:
John Nese is the proprietor of Galcos Soda Pop Stop in LA. His father ran it as a grocery store, and when the time came for John to take charge, he decided to convert it into the ultimate soda-lovers destination. About 500 pops line the shelves, sourced lovingly by John from around the world. John has made it his mission to keep small soda-makers afloat and help them find their consumers. Galcos also acts as a distributor for restaurants and bars along the West Coast, spreading the gospel of soda made with cane sugar (no high-fructose corn syrup if John can avoid it).

I was going to go visit this shop next Wednesday when I flew into LA, but it closes at 6:30 and my plane doesn’t get in until 5:00.
