Heads Up; Green Xmas in San Francisco
Many of the clubs in town are stocked with superior bud. Among them are:

Hope Net @323 ninth street is still holding Bubba Kush (see last post) and a lush version of Green Crack that comes on warm and sultry, like swimming during an afternoon rain, and taking a long, lazy dive past schools of brightly colored fish.

Over at Divinity Tree, 958 Geary Street, we found a splendid selection, including a major league version of Chem Dawg that unwinds like a Tim Lincecum fast ball, sizzling as it elevates
past the hitter, bullpen, and upper deck, on its way to the hall of fame.
Also on hand is Silver Surfer, a blend of Silver Haze and Skunk, that definitely strikes a mellow note for the holiday festivities, being as laid back as Bing Crosby crooning White Christmas.

Re-Leaf, at 1284 Mission Street @ 9th, is holding its usual fine variety, including a strain called Crescendo, that lives up to its name, building to a melodic, yet contemplative, level.

Please Note: All of these clinics and strains were chosen for their moderate pricing. Too many clubs are inching past the financial reach of their patients.

The Road Never Ends: New York State Of Mind

The drive back from California was uneventful, save for a detour to Vegas. When we reached New York everyone parted company, including me and Barbara. It was time, besides which i was couch surfing while Barbara went back to her parents in the Bronx. i was always welcome to stay with The Twins (along with the rest of NY) as well as with Richy, who was sharing a penthouse with Luigi Alfano. They were indeed the Odd Couple. Richy was a Jewish prince, indifferent to things domestic, while Luigi was compulsively neat. i still remember an exasperated Luigi saying over and over, "Richy-it only takes five minutes..." But Richy hooked me up with an old pal Harvey, from his University of Miami days. (Rich did find time to join a fraternity) . At the time Harvey was working as an agent for ABC, founded by the legendary Joe Glazer. Harvey was, as he still is, a great hang, and he needed a roommate, having broken his girlfriend's jaw in a moral dispute.
