Klatch Meeting at Black Forest Coffee – in GATEWAY CENTER?
Bull 090705

Well, maybe that does make sense – think about those “regular attendees” to council meetings like Dilworth, the Willoughbys, Alene, Fischer, etc.
Gateway Center

Gateway Center is a “Residential Program serves clients ranging from the moderately functioning to the profoundly disabled, providing 24-hour care and supervision.”

Country Club Gate is where Black Forest Coffee is, along with the best taqueria – Michael s, the best market – Save Mart and the best pizza – Domino’s.

It’s been written here before – the mass of PG leaders does not acknowledge the southernmost part of PG, the forbidden zone that lies beyond that stoplight at Sunset & Forest. It’s all “Grove Market this” and “Art Gallery that” when thinking about P.G. services and businesses.

Two White Shark Attacks In Four Days

What’s Scarier? The sharks in the water or the sharks on the rec trail?

Great White Shark

Most mammals—and all local marine mammals—heard about the WHITE SHARK who attacked the man surfline.com identified as 24-year-old TODD ENDRISS at MARINA STATE BEACH Tuesday morning. But fewer heard about the attack last Saturday in OTTER COVE just past LOVERS POINT. Squid’s allies in the dive community tell Squid that a pair of divers saw a smaller white circle them, then disappear—only to make a charge at them. Luckily, they were carrying spearguns, which they reportedly used to fend off the shark before surfacing and successfully screaming for help from a nearby dive skiff.

The Secret Is Out – Warm Weather Arrives In The Fall

(Christian Science Monitor)

The fog rolled in during Memorial Day weekend. It was right on schedule. My wife and I looked gloomily at each other and sighed. We weren’t ready for summer yet; at least not our type of foggy summer. That fog can really put a chill in you.

Weather forecasters call a marine layer. Well, I call it a marine invasion. Fog by any other name is just as gray.

Ah, but then Labor Day arrives. The fog lifts, our spirits lift, and everything reappears in glorious profusion. Those magnificent Monterey pines stand out clearly etched against sand, sea, and sky.

The bathroom…it’s small. The shower is tiny. The closet for some reason is huge.

Ranks #6 of 15

I did stay in a room overlooking the cemetery a bit smelly, though, not sure what that was, like a sewage smell

Ranks #7 of 15
Asilomar Conference Grounds
800 Asilomar Ave
It’s a ‘No Fun Zone.’ Allow for an audible cork pop on that extremely expensive bottle of Chataueneuf de Pape and then watch the fun police (aka Security) materialize from aforementioned fog and pour it on the ground!

Ranks #8 of 15
Lover’s Point Inn

The bed however was one of the worst beds I have slept on in my life. It felt like a solid wood plank on VERY LOUD RUSTY springs. You could not breathe too hard or SQUUUEEEEAKKK!

Ranks #9 of 15
Sunset Inn
133 Asilomar Blvd.
when I pulled back the comforter, I was greeted by a fairly large spider scurrying away. I heard the constant sound of buzzing, like a lawn mower starting up. Later I found that this sound was caused whenever someone turned on the water.

Ranks #10 of 15
Howard Johnson Express Pacific Grove
660 Dennett Street
the inside hallway leading to our room smelled very bad, like curry. the managers apartment was right below our room. well, the manager and friends partied until after 2am

Ranks #11 of 15
The Wilkie’s Inn (Clarion Collection)
1038 Lighthouse Ave
a fairly grotty place, despite the impression of being recently renovated. I got the feeling that it was all done cheaply and without much attention to detail. The bed linen, while clean, looked like it had had an interesting history given the pattern of stains and rips.

Ranks #12 of 15
Sea Breeze Lodge
204 Grove Acre Avenue
The room did have a problem with ants. They were tiny, but I had dispatched and lined up a dozen while I was shaving. Court yard was a parking lot with a little green grass over on the side. I have stayed in better motels out in the middle of the dessert.

Ranks #13 of 15
Best Western Monarch Resort
1111 Lighthouse Avenue
dark and smells like grannie’s house after it has been shut up for two months. It cost me $162.00 plus tax not to stay there and was worth every penny. stained furnishings and a belligerent owner/manager. Wine tasted like juice and cheese was the cheapest they could find.

P.G. Mayor Takes The Side Of The Amorous Bugs

Mib Alien

Pacific Grove Mayor Dan Cort supports the city of Monterey’s efforts to delay by 30 days spraying of pheromones to curb mating of the light brown apple moth, the city said today.

The planned aerial spraying is intended to prevent invasive light brown apple moths from breeding.

Maybe the Mayor is not all what he appears to be . .

Spinach Poisoning People Again, Gets Recalled

popeye spinach

A Salinas Valley spinach grower issued a voluntary recall late Tuesday for bagged spinach after lab tests confirmed the presence of salmonella. The recall involves 8,118 cases of bagged spinach distributed by Metz Fresh LLC of King City and processed by a contract facility in Watsonville.

Sold under the Metz Fresh label, the spinach was sold to retail outlets and food service providers across the United States and Canada in 10-ounce and 16-ounce bags, as well as in 4-pound cartons and in 2.5-pound four-pack cartons, with tracking codes 12208114, 12208214 and 12208314.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, salmonella bacteria live in the intestinal tracts of humans and animals, including birds. Undercooked eggs, poultry or meat are the most common sources of salmonellosis in humans, although other foods, such as vegetables, may be contaminated.

WHAT? AGAIN? After all that money the Sam “the Sham” Farr took from taxpayers to ensure safe veggies?? Where did that money go anyway?
