Huckleberries Gone Wi-Fi — Hanging Out @ Java on Sherman

I'll be at Java on Sherman for the next hour or so, wi-fi'ing and hanging out. Owner Sam Wallin's handling the cash register. The place is jumping. Not an empty table. Sam asked who I'm going to interview next. I told him Major John Chamness of the Salvation Army -- the man who will be in charge of the new Kroc Center. His suggestion for a subsequent interview? Someone from the LCDC. Hmm. The controversy definitely has made inroads on Sherman Avenue. BTW, it was a bit embarrassing that I ordered a 16-ounce coffee and then discovered that I only had a buck in my wallet. I coulda swore there was much more before Amy Dearest arrived Friday for a weekend stay. And after I'd stopped at the bank today to make a deposit.
