ON MONEY
"Las Vegas is the only place I know
where money really talks. It says Goodbye."
—Frank Sinatra
"For what? For a little bit of money.
There's more to life than a little money, you know.
Don'tchya know that? And here ya are, and it's a beautiful day.
Well, I just don't understand it."
—Marge Gunderson
"Getting money is easy, but changing an
impoverished mindset is next to impossible."
—Nicholas Payton

MAL DU PAYS
Remembering our beloved Doggie (later King) Diner at 10th & Mission in San Francisco, where the jazz warriors and even the late, great Tony Williams enjoyed 24-hour grease burgers. Gone but not forgotten. ~DM
