But Bill Westphal, who is everywhere, shares some pictures from the Edge of the Arroyo. All the info we get says it was a great concert.

This went out over the newsgroups — we've eliminated identifying information, but it's odd enough that it rings true and means the thieves have something new up their sleeves …
Yesterday (Wednesday) my husband called Mercedes Benz road side service because my car (parked in the garage along with my husband's car) would not start. A technician from Ruznak came about 1:15 pm and jumped my car.

Lots of good energy and high spirits filled the Loma Alta Park gym as students attended Black College Night Thursday. The night was an opportunity for students to meet students and alums of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
Penny Daniels of the Loma Alta Park staff, who helped organize the event, received a certificate from the county board of supervisors.
Among the attractions were demonstrations of “steppin,” an HBCU tradition.
