so I go into Santa Barbara for some coffee at the Finestra Cafe, 15 E Figueroa...this is SB central: police station, Courthouse, Folk Mote Music, gang members, and tourists...and I'm looking for God....
I'm walking along the sidewalk and I come up behind a couple from Germany, the lady turns around and looks at me and jumps from fright! I scared her for some reason..I said "sorry to scare you, I'm just an American"..she and her husband started laughing and now I got two new German friends..If I could get rid of the husband, I'd have one fine-looking German girlfriend!
Ok, enough silliness...I'm still looking for the Finestra Cafe..and while I'm walking I see great big tall Ayn Rand kinda buildings lining Figueroa St..it's like a canyon down here... "young girls are coming to the canyon"...I like canyons!! Look here..BOOM..look there... BOOM..not gun fire, just tall buildings hitting the sky...vote NO on B...there's nothing wrong with a few tall buildings...unless you're afraid of heights...what happens if the Yes on B folks see a tall building, I wonder? Do they cry??
so where is this Finestra place? Well, first, let me be blunt.... there's two Santa Barbaras: the parallel SB where Wendy and her pet friends reside; and the normal SB where the rest of us hang out
there's a coffee house down here in parallel Santa Barbara called Chock Full O' Nuts which makes more sense than Finestra Cafe if you know what I mean (wink wink). But I'm staring at 15 E Figueroa in normal Santa Barbara and the only thing I see is Jeannine's, the bakery! This is where the health food store used to be..many moons ago..but there's no Finestra Cafe..so much for Christian business skills...I guess it's easier to ask rich guys and the flock for money than actually work for it!
So.. yeah... I was disappointed..I was looking forward to a nice cup of Job! (get it?) Here's some reviews of the defunct coffee shop/church/ propaganda business
