Next stop: The House

Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

The day following my visit to The House (1230 Grant Street, North Beach, San Francisco), I arrived at Fang for what has become an important tradition: lunch with great old pal and current KNBR morning host Brian Murphy. When I continued to refer to the restaurant as "The House," he corrected me each time and said, "No, the restaurant is simply called 'House.'" I asked him if he we were having a Northern California/Southern California freeway language collision, as in "you take 101 North into Marin County" but "you take The 101 into Los Angeles." He assured me were communicating on the same NorCal plane, I just had it wrong: the official name of the restaurant was "House."

So, I took a picture to prove him wrong. I won, of course. He texted his lovely wife Candace to vouch for his position that the restaurant clearly changed its name.

It matters not. I was right. He was wrong. The universe remains in balance.
