Nick - Thanks for the link. Ohori's is not my goto, but I'm 100% with the spirit. I have had no traction on trying to extend this kind of help TO my regular go-tos. I am of a mind that at the very least, my weekly *tip* budget could go straight into the same pockets it used to with no harm to me... and as you point out, my entire luxury food/services budget could go that way as well.
I'll check for other go-fund-me's in SFe and would love to hear from others who have discovered similar to yours here. - Steve > To The Mother Church, > > As you know, I am addicted to coffee and particularly to coffee > houses, and particularly to Ohori’s-next-to-Kaune’s, where I like to > loll in the sunshine of a late afternoon like the flea-bitten old dog > that I am.
