Adrienne reviewed 'Cafe Bistro' outside Nordstrom's as she was pretty impressed, a bit expensive, but the food was good - especially the French onion soup & it's a nice place to go at the Valley Fair mall Harold reviewed boxing as it was not worth full price and had an awful undercard & reviewed 'the Mist' as he didn't like it and it was entirely predictable, worth matinee if you like the genre Frank reviewed Norton Sales in LA as they sell old airplane and rocket parts & rated it as really cool Fred reviewed 'Twelfth Night' by Theatre Works in Palo Alto as really great and worth full price [$50.00] Joe reviewed his first trip to Mexico as it was a lot of fun and all about the bartering and highly recommends it Then we auctioned off a KTEH keyring for $1.50; a bag of yummies by Adrienne for $1.25; a bag of books for $0.50 & a book for $1.00 We adjourned at = 8:44 And the rumor of the week was that = ‘Free Chris Garcia with every purchase'0 _______________________________________________ Basfa mailing list [email protected] http://lists.basfa.org/listinfo.cgi/basfa-basfa.org
