I'll go to that peet's every so-often and it       looks the same as it did years ago. I used to stop at berkeley just for       cheeseboard pizza and philz coffee. Philz is now franchised out and in       sacramento where I live.              If passing through I'll stop in berkeley for cheeseboard though. That's pizza's       hella dope.               Da> These days we go to nothing but local roasters for our beans.

Found       it at Marshall's for, like, $5.              Daniel Traechin              ...
