The Phyllis Women Inga, Phyllis, Nancy and Lindsay

My favorite girly shop in Palo Alto is Phyllis. Five-forty Ramona, great location, near Coupa. I debuted (day booted?) my Ginsberg tribute Beat Hotel Rm 32 Reads Howl in 2009 nearby, at 530 Ramona.

For a straight guy who, please believe me, I never wear dresses, I fully endorse this place. Phyllis told me she partied with Mingus, for instance, back in the day.

I bought my GF Terry some stuff there once.

Cute photo!

And I vowed that if I actually get seated for City Council, I will buy a dress, assuming there is something that fits me — I am about 6 feet even and 200 pounds — wear it once and donate it to charity.

(This reminds me of meeting Roxy Rapp, who owns 219 Hamilton across street, for first time recently and telling him I rocked Roxy euro-dude duds while at L.L. Bean Dartmouth in the 1980s, or at least until Teddy Conway of the New Orleans rugby Conways told me the striped pants were clown-like).

I am writing this while board stiff so to speak at Council beating around the bush on “shuttle issue” –when I speak I will say what Schmid just said, and I just applauded 8:36 p.m. MARGUERITE. Speaking of chicks I dig.

Marguerite was Asa’s favorite horse as shuttled people from Palo Alto to Stanford back in the day.

We are beating a dead or dying horse here and reinventing the wheel. I say: cute a deal with Big Daddy and let Marguerite be he or she a horse or human figure out our problems. Duh. And how much, if I bellowed about $175,000 for the Flints — Half Moon Bay planning flunkies — are we spending on Fleece and Fleer or whoever they are, from Germany and England and Hawaii oh my.

Jim Burch with his dying breath said: let’s decorate the busses to increase ridership, because it was dead or dying then. I was there. In 2010, exactly four years ago. At PAPAC arts meeting.
(I suggested a bus dressed like Furthr).

Steve from Gunn, dude from Enschede.

Fittingly (love the dress terms), I was late to my speech because I drove home a young singer named Darryl Delanty I think who uses the Shuttle.

Are you on the bus or off the bus?

Stoned angels weep. Because you are wasting $300,000 of their our money, I am merely guessing – the number is hidden. I will ask.

Can I have 10 minutes not 3, Nancy?
