Haute Dame moved from the small space at Grand & Laurel and expanded, then suddenly vanished without the usual 3 month long going out of business sale.

Oh No, The Furniture Store Is Closing!
842 Lighthouse Avenue out of business fourth time in a year.
Anyone wanna bet that it’s a scam?
First lie is when the countdown ended on Saturday and they changed the “Final X Days” to “Final Weekend”
Don’t worry if you need a $900 chair for $500, they usually reopen soon under a new name, if not for an “Emergency Re-opening then closing” Sale
They Went Thattaway
Schools Need $$. To Pay For Latest DMC Job
After the Six Million Dollar football field I see that DMC is once again on the job at PG High. What is it now, a million dollar parking lot?
Wachovia Bank Closed
The original World Savings barely had time to change the name to Wachovia, then was bought by Wells Fargo and closed.
John Denver Plaque Finally Installed
Not much fuss over it by the community. It’s been three years since it started, and yes, there was a NIMBY that opposed it. It is closer to the actual crash site, unlike another memorial tree at Lovers Point.

The Bank’s Only Selling Point – Strong?
Union Bank weak in good taste with the tacky banner nailed to the building.
Do you have to pay dues to belong to Union bank? Do members visit your house at night demanding you to sign a card?
Hazaras Carpets Cares Not For Pacific Grove
Parked on the Avenue
Parked up the street
Parked on the corner
Parked on Forest – in the 20 minute zone
Revisiting an old theme, businesses that take up all the parking on Lighthouse Avenue. This week I had a chance to speak with one of the business people, here’s how it went:
Me, on my Saturday visit downtown to go to the bank and walk from there down to the post office. I’m at Forest and Lighthouse, waiting to turn right and park someplace. I see this short guy get into the brown Hazara Designer Collection van that is parked on Forest avenue and start it up. He’s squeezing between my car and the sidewalk to ALSO turn right. He stops, I turn and begin a parking space search. Nothing on the south side, I go down to 15th and hang a U-turn. I park on the north side in the 400 block.
At the same time the short guy is getting out of the brown rug van, now parked on Lighthouse in front of the store of the same name. What the heck, I want to see if he has an answer for me. I walk up and ask why he parks his van here and not in the lot around the block? He shrugs. Shouldn’t you leave the parking spaces available for people that come to town to shop instead of moving your van back and forth in 90 minute spaces all day? “No, what’s it matter to you?” he says. It matters to me that I might be a business owner that has customers complaining about hard to find parking spaces. It matters to me that I myself am looking for a place to park for 30 minutes and seeing your rug cleaner van taking up spaces is a poor practice. Told him I’ll never shop at his store or recommend it. He says he does not need my business or any of my friends business.
Hear that? Does not need our business. Hope he gets fleas in his rug.
Pollacci Rape Trial: He Rubs More Than Her Back
ewwww.
Earlier Wednesday, the woman described an encounter with Pollacci in 1995, when she lived across the street from his parents’ home in Pebble Beach.
Jane Doe 5 said she accepted an invitation to visit him as he cooked dinner at the house, a date that turned sour when she discovered he was masturbating as he gave her a shoulder massage.
She said she ran home, with Pollacci in pursuit, claiming they were “having a good time,” and she finally sent him away by threatening to call the police.
Promises, Promises
Is it for real this time, huh?
Moran furniture store at 842 Lighthouse Avenue that keeps having out of business sales every year. Who wants to bet on a repeat of the “emergency reopening going out of business sale” on May 1?
