Quiet Hour

Breakfast at a mostly vacant French Marketplace. Staffers, two or three patrons, a pair of Los Angeles County highway patrolmen and a grumpy-looking guy staring a hole in his scrambled eggs and fuming at his slower-than-a-turtle AT&T Communications air card -- Monday, 1.26.09, 7:35 am.

Jeff and the guy come from such different sets of circumstance.

I loves me some James Crumley and some Joni Mitchell. It's great to see them together.
