love, love, love these pictures Anthony!

I always appreciate the history you share William, thank you!

Interesting, is that why they decided to continue the namesake of "Ironsides" like the USS Constitution aka Old Ironsides?

Hi CCC, if you go to their calendar they have a whole bunch of bands playing throughout the month and rest of the year: http://www.myspace.com/theoldironsides Hope that helps!

I like the format of the letter though, it's so creative. You're gonna be such a good magazine writer!

Brilliant Greg, that was fantastic!!!

Thanks Lesley! I also wish I could attend! I will actually try to go to another Slow Food event, perhaps in the spring.

I really enjoyed reading this story, thank you for posting!

you are my s/hero Tina, I am so SO glad you were able to cover this. Pictures really help with the adoptions, keep up the great work!

**editing mistake, that should have been "peruse" not "pursue the sculptures." Sorry for the error.**

I really enjoyed volunteering there. This is such a great organization. They always need the help, so if anyone is thinking of being involved with something great, this is the place!

I'm a Sac State student too Kimberly, and I completely relate to what you're saying. Students and professors are feeling the crunch. I have gone to office hours with professors and you can just see the strain in their faces. They want to help more, but no one has the time. It is unreal what we have to go through. I studied abroad for a year and honestly until anything changes I think that might be the best solution for students right now until this lunacy changes. It's almost cheaper to live abroad, and not worry about classes being cut!

Calrans said it was "due to a clogged drain." If the pumps weren't working properly, both sides of the freeway would have been flooded. Or at least that's what they are saying, so who knows for sure really.

yuck! Be safe driving!

I am so happy to hear they are finally working on this! I am a little disappointed it will take up to 10 years for it to get to the airport though. Did they mention anything about when it will eventually be expanded further into Elk Grove? Or heck, even Davis? That might be their 20 year plan if I remember correctly.

great event coverage Greg!

I have to admit Jon after doing this interview I felt pretty excited myself. I am really curious about the pub quiz and documentaries!

I about died laughing reading this, ""We have had people come out who have wet their pants and run into walls." Priceless!

haha! Maybe that will change in time, William.
