Crested, chained and flat-out Rite Aided!

Now showing: NOTHING!: The Biz Journal chimes in on the Crest debacle with a nice bit. Of interest: It looks like Sid has spoken with Brennan since the Shallit article--and Brennan isn't talking to the press now. Perhaps he's learned his lesson and is going to shut his trap since he has no clue about Sac and what we actually care about (hint: not some art center for the rich).

Beckler's already gone apeshit and threatened to move to Stockton. Not a bad idea: Just as many vegan options and way better Asian food (and cheaper rent, no doubt).

Development hell continues: In other development news:

1. Infinity photography in East Sac was given a 60-day notice by their landlord ... which expired on June 1. They're selling off tons of photo gear on Sunday, on H and 56th Streets, for those of interest.

So, you can no longer get black and white photos developed on the grid ... unless you come over and use my basement, natch! Try Cox photography in Rancho Cordova. I was out there earlier today watching F-14s do flyovers of I-50. It was sick ... and I almost got in a crash!

So, what's going into the old Infinity space? Well ... voila!

(For you lazy asses, another Crepeville.)

2. East Sac is getting there first Peets Coffee, in the old Bill Smith Photography building. Shit, what's with the photo connection? Here's a grab of the construction at work:
Nobody knows what will be neighboring the Peets.

And while I'm not exactly stoked, I'm excited to see who wins the Peets/Starbucks Battle for 36th Street. (My money's on Twisted.)

3. RITE AID 48th STREET is OPEN! Yes YES YES. Now, when I have beers on my front porch, I have a shiny new Rite Aid to look at. Fucking vomit. Go there and spill milk, drop eggs and ice-cream cones! Do IT!
