“I can resist everything except temptation” – Oscar Wilde

By From http://kybecca.blogspot.com/ • Sep 9th, 2008 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

…Nothing could be more true when it comes to the Wine Bar at Kybecca than the statement above. Last Friday, Hurricane Hannah threatened the peace and stability of the east coast of America more imminently than the former Iraqi dictator ever did. No but seriously:
I watched from inside the William st. store as the colors of the sky turned ominously from bright & sunny to dark & gray, skipping sunset. The winds began to blow the table clothes outside, like a trumpet signaling the arrival of the much-anticipated storm. And the excitement built among the staff as with each passing hour we noted, “it’s coming, it’s coming; it’s here.. almost”. And yet without fail I watched as faithful patrons inquired within about seating at the Wine Bar outside. Each time I’d listen as Rebecca or one of the wait staff would inform them that we are expecting a Hurricane any minute, but that we’d be delighted to seat them. That seemed to have nihl effect upon the determined appetites of our customers Friday evening. We were packed, and under a tropical storm advisory. Go figure. With new dishes like the lobster salad, or the new recipe below of corn chowder it’s no wonder. I guess it just proves that the menu at Kybecca is so tempting that it cannot be resisted come wind or rain, hurricane or no hurricane.

September chasing

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Sep 8th, 2008 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Tomorrow looks like it could be one of those rare non-tropical September chase days. A summer-ending cold front is forecast to sweep through and trigger storms in the Mid-Atlantic. I’ve peeked at the models, and they are showing a small amount of wind…

For those of us yearning for unique city reporting last year, watching The Bullet transition from university hosting to the FLS backend was painful at best. Somewhere in there, it seemed that the reporting tailed off, and even though there were incredi…

It has taken 6 months of writting stories on the blackberry while riding the train, or staying up late after council meetings, but this is my 200th post. (ok, you can’t read several because I chose after finishing not to publish several stories.) In t…



What’s Sarah Thinking?

By From http://fred2blue.wordpress.com • Sep 8th, 2008 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

That’s the question a new website is asking.
Maybe she thinking about the fact that even some her closest female friends don’t want to vote for her.
Or maybe it’s her sterling endorsement from Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice, who says of Palin, “She’s a governor of a state here in the United States.” Curb your enthusiasm Condi.
Or […]
