Spat with the editors
Last night’s “Chat with the Editors” at Newport Rib Co. went smoothly, thanks to the great folks who work there. It was the best venue yet (sorry, Skosh, but Newport Rib Co. gave us a microphone!).
About 15-20 readers attended and we had a nice little chat about a variety of issues. I’ve been joking all day that in the past two meetings it was more like Spat with the Editors (OK, it wasn’t that bad, but folks there were a bit feisty). This definitely seems more like a chat — like a backyard conversation with friends while you’re waiting for the burgers and dogs to cook on the grill.
Much of the discussion involved the rehab home issue in Newport Beach. But we also talked about John Wayne Airport and the efforts to build a new library in Costa Mesa.
If you missed it, don’t fret (This means you, Geoff West — when are you going to come to one of our Chats?), we’ll have another one soon. Probably at Newport Rib if they’ll have us.
Ah, Mr. Anderson, I’m sorry to have, once again, missed the opportunity to interact with you and Brady. Once again, we were hundreds of miles away…. another time. I really DO look forward to participating in your “Meet and Greet” events. It’s not often we get a chance to pick on a real Cubs fan out here!
