You can leave one at Toad, or email me through there. Mar Iguana, I will, and I’ll buy you the beer of your choice too, if I have an email address.

The best brews are probably at the local micro-brewery, Bear Republic Brewing Co. They have some decent suds at Healdsburger too. That's Healdsburger. I erred above with the "'s." Another battered beauty (Wait. That may not be the best choice of words. I'll work on it.) there are, a bow to the Twisty state, Texas Toothpicks, "Thin-cut strips of sweet Spanish onion & mild jalapenos coated with crispy zesty batter." Another eat-'em'-up' yummer. Even I, confirmed carnivore, occasionally enjoy The Rosemary Portobello Burger. And, for your hot dog fans nothing quite satisfies like The Big Dog: Two, count 'em, two eight-inchers (woof!), butterflied ala couvade, grilled and served on a hogie roll, sauerkraut optional. Be still ma heart. Ah, Humboldt. What's not to love? I spent a week there one day. Admittedly, my perceptions could have been a tad altered. Can't remember.

A dear friend advised me of this phenomenon as we strolled the boardwalk at Santa Cruz. We immediately put it to the test. Sure enough, if you make eye contact with a male person as you chomp many will wince.

Damn, we were even up there a few weeks ago, looking at the clintonia in the redwoods. And it's a day trip. OK, I know where we have lunch next time, and I'll buy you a beer. You know, whenever, if you get down here or we get contact info or the heavens open up and rain Eeel River Brewery IPA or whatever. And yeah, I'm giggling madly at your nym. Especially after last week up in Humboldt. Mar Iguana, THANK you! Damn, we were even up there a few weeks ago, looking at the clintonia in the redwoods. And it’s a day trip.

Even at Patriarchy on a Stick, where the workers are forced to smoosh lemonade in dorky outfits. I deem pronto pups gross if they are not corn batter. I'm sure they are great, actually, but why mess with perfection? Also, yeah there is a weenie inside, but you can chomp down on it. This ain't no delicate hum-job. Give the patriarchical corn dog some teeth! Corn Dogs are amazing. Even at Patriarchy on a Stick, where the workers are forced to smoosh lemonade in dorky outfits.

Jezebella, the whipped honey-butter? Inspired. I, of course, had to rush right out and try that new, taste sensation and all I can say is: Oh. Yeah. Thanks. I think.
