My hub’s old friends Emmanuel Goldstein and Kyle came over on a Sunday afternoon.

They were in Berlin for a few days post CCC.

We had a great New Yorker talk, ranging from the things lost from the East Village to how it impacts your life to be a collector and archivist of your community’s history.

Folks from this particular community have a hollow leg for Club Mate.

I asked if they wanted one and Emmanuel said, “Well we just had one – sure, why not!”.

Good thing we keep a case on the balcony around CCC season, also known as the Hacker High Holidays in our house!
