Where is this Gulu-Gulu? I grew up next to Salem in Peabody, and my parents still live there. Knowing of a good coffee shop to flee to while staying at my parents for family related torture would be useful...
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

I'd say it's right in front of the Samantha/Bewitched statue, but I'm not sure if you'd know where that is. In any case, Essex street at the intersection of Washington (I think) where the next section of the street is a pedestrian only area.

Speaking of the Pope, I still grin whenever I think about the fact that my rental gear will spend two weeks on the plaza of the LA Cathedral for Shakespeare Festival again this summer. Why do I grin you ask? Funny you should, it's because it has "Diablo Sound" all over the road cases.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
But I do think it would be fun to live there.
It is! It would! Look at the cool stuff we have!
The breakfast joint that serves great food cheap and where Revolutionary Patriots plotted off coffee!
Cute period hotel that has a cozy pub!
A replica of a 1797 three-masted Salem East Indiaman big ass boat!
Cobblestone streets! Beautifully preserved Federal style architecture! Awesome museum!
Ahem. I'll stop now.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
they have Ommegang 3 Philosophers! Love!
3 Philosophers is *excellent*!
I'm also intrigued by the Ommegang Hennepin they have on draft.
The Hennepin is really good, too, but I like it in warmer weather.
t edit But basically, Ommegang can do no wrong.

So, the strap on the shoes I was wearing broke. Fixable, but as there also was a hole in the sole, I gave them up for ghost. So, I went out at lunch and bought these Sugar, right?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Slightly more realistically, this is the kind of place I'd like to move into as soon as we can afford it. I do love our current apartment, but...it's an apartment. I want a house.

Yep. Know that area. Used to get my weekly comics growing up at the Red Lion Smokeshop when it was on Washington, but I've heard it has moved...
