I had my last lunch with my Vietnam buddy today before I head home tomorrow. He wanted to go to a restaurant at Jack London Square in downtown Oakland which was quite nice and right on the marina. I had mapped out the route from San Francisco and back across the Bay Bridge as Oakland is not a place to get lost in and everything went smoothly until I discovered that Downtown Oakland is pretty much all under construction. I spent about 45 minutes in Oakland looking for freeway on ramps and as a result got the tour nobody wants to take. Just glad it was daylight.

Have you ever felt like the entire world is a tuxedo and you're a brown pair of shoes?

Was stationed at Naval Weapons Station Concord and once three of us traveled to the Alameda Navy base to shop at their PX. This was pre cell phones/portable GPS. Headed back at dusk, missed a turn and ended up in a part of Oakland covered in gang graffiti. Drove well over the speed limit and barely slowed down for any red lights. We felt lucky to get out of there alive.

During my internship in 2015, Kaiser Permanente was our client and I was working out of their headquarters in Oakland every day. Downtown was always fine, but one of the undergrad interns was a Stanford kid who thought he found a great deal on an Airbnb for the summer... in West Oakland. He stayed there for a week and a half before getting his parents to bail him out and get to a nicer neighborhood.

Regardless, I just remember the area around the Colosseum (A’s stadium and old Warriors arena) being pretty gnarly every time I took the BART through there.

Definitely some great entertainers providing great entertainment back then. But ... the world marches on. Relentlessly.

Loved George Gobel. And I'm old enough to recognize every one of those guys and not be shocked they were all smoking. Quite the all star crew sitting there.

I'm back home in the land of straight streets and free parking. We're a bit boring here behind the Orange Curtain but damn does it feel normal. Bay Area has gone completely off the rails. Even the locals admit it when they're being honest. Sad really.

I forgot to mention that when I was in North Beach I stopped by the City Lights Bookstore to pay homage to the passing of the poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti at the age of 101 in February. He and I probably wouldn't have agreed on much politically but I'll always respect anyone who stands up for free speech and against censorship and possesses the courage to risk literal lee everything to take that stand. He founded the City Lights Bookstore in 1953 with a $500 investment and was one of the originals of the Beat Generation (Beatniks). His pals were Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac.

Their passion was instrumental in laying the groundwork for the '60s revolution and our emergence from the stifling smothering censorship of the previous generations in film, art and literature. Truly one of a kind.

My daughter ordered a new Bronco (not the sport version) back in January. Ford is now telling her it might be a "2022 model year" vehicle as they're unable to get the electronic components needed to build her order. They've offered a modest discount to "offset the inconvenience", but she's now rolling in a 2013 Escape with over 100,000 miles (what's left of the new vehicle I bought her for college at Chadron State).

I hope the new ones carry the same cache someday as those legendary early ones still do. It's one of those vehicles that definitely has a cult following.
