Ok … I tried out a really cool coffee shop/cafe, right in the thick of things, near the SXSW show — Halcyon.  Right off the bat, I learned how they keep up with the high rent — $3.50 for a n/a ginger beer.  But it was good.

November 6th, 2008 · Tags: Cities · Coffee Shops · Hotels · Restaurant · Satire

Well, it took exactly one and only one ocean wave to rip off my sunglasses — even though they were “tied on” my head with a brand new, Lifeguard-red croakie strap.  Ha … That’s a good look!
“Aye, the ocean she is angry and she has taken me rose colored spectacles to the deep, to make [...]
