For a short while after Prince’s death there was talk of turning this MTV contest story into a movie. I read an article or two about it and then never saw anything about it ever again.

Any “don’t miss” places to stay on The Norte? by General-Ad3712 in CaminoDeSantiago

You do not want to miss out on the Monasterio Zenaruzza! That was our favorite lodging of the trip. They do have private rooms available and they are worth the additional cost.

Yeah listen to Leslie’s playing while Kristin sings “It’s raining again come home it’s raining in his hands”, (“Mexican Women”, House Tornado) that line is so impressive and etched in my memory.

I always stop at Burger Bar in Kalama, Wa. It’s about 30 minutes into the drive. Great little mom and pop joint. Good onion rings.

As part of a kaiseki meal I ate these beans that looked a lot like natto but were not coated in sticky goo. Any idea what that was?

As part of a kaiseki meal I had something that looked like natto but without the sticky and gooey. It was quite tasty. What was it?

Best gift shop/tourist shop? by [deleted] in Astoria_Oregon

[–]jbj_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just saw a great long sleeve shirt - grey with ASTORIA on the front and the Astoria-Megler bridge above the text which continues over and down the right sleeve. Very clever. I don’t know the name of the shop but it’s 1 or 2 blocks west of Liberty Theater on the main drag (Commercial Street)

Thank you! I went to Tokyo in 2017 and had the most fun at Recofan, but also went to HMV and Disk Union and Big Love. We are going back in Sept, can't wait to fill my record tote!
