Some lovely leaded glass uncovered on Pike Street, a reminder of a long-forgotten business.

Note to the all the Laptop Hobos at Little Oddfellows: Start doubling up and sharing tables or you’re gonna get laptops banned. Three times recently I’ve dropped into Little Oddfellows with someone hoping to have lunch and turned around and left because every single table in the place was occupied by a lone person with a laptop and what looked like a two- or three-hour-old cup of coffee. Like being able to get some work done at Little Oddfellows? Me too! So start doubling up and sharing tablesโ€”and leaving some space for dinersโ€”or LO’s owner (hi, Linda!) will have no choice but to ban all laptop users, considerate and inconsiderate alike. It’s a cafe, FFS, not a library/wifi hotspot/your living room.

It’s been three days since we’ve had a drive-by shooting within our two-block radius. Keep up the good not-shooting-people work, folks.
