Along Oakland's northernmost stretch of Telegraph Avenue, there are a few particular blocks that, for whatever reason, are absolutely saturated with Ethiopian food. But none, of the thousand or so that have wedged their way somewhere between the Marxist Library and Pet Food Express, is quite so exquisite as Café Colucci.

If you want proof beyond your own intuition (and possible schadenfreude-smeared hopes), that the tech bubble can hold no more air, you could look to a Valleywag article which notes that as prominent tech stocks decline, the reaction in Silicon Valley is growing panicky as investors try to claim that down is actually up. Wall Street doesn't seem to approve of those 44 percent of all Twitter accounts never having tweeted, but the company's defenders say that's just the price of their "long-term vision." Ruh-roh?
If you grew up in America and are, well, you know, either Christian or otherwise highly acculturated, it's practically impossible not to have fond memories of some kind of Easter candy, no matter how gross: chocolate bunnies, jelly beans in fake green grass, and the inimitable Cadbury Crème Egg. (Me, I pocket a Cadbury Crème Egg every year, because my irrepressible nostalgia extends to teenage shoplifting as well as chocolate).
The more that the tech monoculture remakes San Francisco, the more I've come to appreciate the Haight. Museum-of-itself though it is, the psychedelic grunginess of its cafes is still an indelible part of S.F. food history. And even though BeBeBar has opened just off of Dolores Park's northwest corner, it feels like a warp zone straight to Masonic. There are freaking "Burning Man service animal" tickets embedded under the table glass!
