this restaurant kind of caught me off guard . what do you think?

so i go out to this restaurant in North Redondo beach.have been to  their Torrance location . This was my first time at the Redondo Beach location, but i 'll be nice and not say the name of the establishment.
order something, then i do something on my phone, see the restaurant's name on the wifi list. i ask the waitress , for the password. she says it's private, for office only ... hmmm, to me that's a little odd , and a bit bad customer relations , just me ?, or i don't know, some of you might be on the restaurants side. however when i worked in the restaurant business we never had wifi back in the early nineties, . i mentioned it to the busboy (sure that will do a lot of good) -told him to change the wifi name (so it doesn't say the name of the restaurant), and don't tell the customers they can't use their wifi. anyway just saying.


 feel free to leave a comment .. that would be awesome..your personal opinion .. 

my kind,generous, only, brother, let me hold on too a few bikes(he's not really ,& being a bit sarcastic), however bch cruiser-

can't beat it in the summer months , i have forgotten how much i love riding my bike, just took it out for a few minutes , around the neighborhood, but you can be damn sure on my off day , i will be on a south bay beach path , or better yet throw it in my mini-van and venture to Orange County or something, Venice maybe, that's always the greatest place to see the diversity of the folks in Los Angeles , rather a posh beach community like Manhattan beach.. anyway if your not a bike rider , you should be , it's a lot of fun , i actually did away with my ten year old racing bike (bought when i lived in Hermosa beach) gave it to the goodwill, my brother probably won't take these bike backs , or i won't let him (he owes me , believe me) . anyway get some cars off the road and get a bike , pay attention, be safe , i just came across a car  at a stop sign , what do i do ? well i go around the BACK of the car, not the front of the car! just like pedestrians  in the city . you should always do that, it's common sense. because sometimes the driver might be looking the other way, and just pull out.. but folks actually walk in FRONT of my car ( i am on the road constantly) anyway , take it easy, and have a fun safe summer , what ever your extracurricular activities may be.    :).

OK i realize some of you may and some of you may not...

be interested where i ventured this week on the road, well this application is tricky , cause some of you may want to know, and others well, could give a hill of beans.. so here it is if you are:)


-Ralph's downtown - gotta check out the cork and tap - one of the two stores (currently)that have them in the store,  basically you can have a beer or a glass of wine right smack in the middle of the supermarket- great concept.. i was working so no li·ba·tion for me :(.

-Cafe Rio in Manhattan Beach always get the  "Barbacoa" (pork) it rocks, they are a chain out of Utah i believe...

-Carl's Jr. in Anaheim - like their new promotional item the Jalepeno popper as a side.

-Wacky wok in MDR or is it Venice? - usually frequent the Lax location , but i happened to be in the MDR area.

-Denny's at the Burbank Airport - they have a fairly new food court right by the airport that has different types of restaurants . i felt like a old style American diner that night.

-Wetzel's pretzels - does this count as a meal?- got a pretzel at the Howard Hughes center- kind of by Lax.
-French Market place in West Hollywood - did you know they have the same menu as the Kettle in Manhattan Beach :) and finally
- Einsteins Bros in Torrance - 
and i think i hit up a taco bell by my apt.
