Let us note that we are not perfect, no we are not, by a long shot. Maybe even a city block. That’s how far we tried to move Doobies Bar – which is and has always been at 22nd & Lombard (not South Street, as we tagged it in, oh, about 200 flyers, postcards and Instagram posts!).

— That correction made, please join us any and every Tuesday in December, from about 7 p.m. till well after 9 to write all sorts of cards and letters. Stay in touch with pen & paper. It’s free – even the postage stamps –and we’ll lend you a pen if you forgot yours.

As always, we thank our sponsors: Yards Brewing Company, Trophy Bikes, and not one, not two , but three intrepid printing companies: Northern Liberty Press, Rittenhouse Instant Press, and the Printers’ Place.

Cheers and keep warm, friends.
