And in case you ever change your mind, the del tag works too.

Review Icon Lena reviewed Tropicana Liquor Market in San Francisco Grocery Stores:
They close a bit early for a liquor store (earlier than the burrito joint next door), but otherwise Tropicana Liquor Market is kind of great. The husband and wife (I assume) who run the place are super friendly to me, and they have a decent selection of products.

I particularly appreciate their energy drink selection. They always have all 3 sizes of Diet Red Bull in stock (surprisingly rare among other nearby stores including Walgreens). Be careful to check the date on perishables, particularly their milk. I don't really fault them for having expired milk since I'm pretty sure most everyone goes here for the beer.

They take credit cards and have a low $5 minimum.

These guys are also my red bull pushers. They're the only place nearby that sells the giant can (which I fondly refer to as Red Bull All-Night edition).

Comment Icon Lena commented on a review of All cats are portable (have crate...will travel) in Why Cats are Better than Dogs:
My cat loves the car once we get on the highway. Prior to that he kinda just freaks out for a few minutes, but he's managed to motor across the entire US with me (in 2 separate trips) without a need for kitty-valium.

I wish I could own one, too, but I don't have the space, money, energy or time. :)

Review Icon Lena reviewed Raveonettes in Pop Artists:
Sickeningly saccharine and tremendously uninspired, every song I've heard from this band feels like an inferior version of something I've heard before.

Their music is impressively boring, from phrase to phrase and from song to song. The Raveonettes have a decent following, but I'm always a bit surprised when a friend openly admits to liking their music.

Here's their latest single, which inspired this review:


Selections off their previous release, Pretty in Black, weren't quite this bad, but they still felt purely referential to other songs more in the spirit of Musak than Music.

Interesting...I've heard a few comments about this film that made it sound a little too cutesy for me, but your taste is stellar, so perhaps I'll give it a shot.
