I had a great time tonight at Borderlands in Sand Francisco. The new cafe next door to the book store is a great addition. I enjoyed a latte there, and then had a very nice evening with a very receptive audience.

I was very sorry that Ripley, the book store cat, is no more. They still have one cat in residence, and quite a lively one, but I recall Ripley fondly from my last visit. Book store cats are special creatures. RIP.
