Ban the Crown and Goose!

I think that the reason you (Jeffrey Delejandro) have gotten so upset by this page is that the 300+ people boycotting the c&w is actually making a difference in business.

So a check has nothing to do with it? Mr. Hannah must be giving Mr. Nash the EMPTY building for FREE then.
Just what the old city needs. More storage.

The thing that bothers me most is this:

Despite the thing itself (and regardless of the fact it's one more step toward disfiguring the Old City into Turkey Creek 2), the Crown and Goose has complete ability to remedy this situation and yet all they can do is pass the blame to someone else.

Janice needs a few extra months? What? C&G can't sit down and talk with her about it logically? They can't work something out where she stayed a bit longer and just pays a prorate on what would then be C&G's lease? They can't WORK IT OUT WITH THEIR NEIGHBOR?... Read More

I guess not. O, but as soon as they see they're yuppie bar getting dogged on the internet, THEN they can come here with something to say. TOTALLY LAME.

I'd rather be a good neighbor than a good businessman, anyday. Then again, a GOOD businessman would also be a good neighbor, too.

One final point that I find amusing. Their website says the C&G is and, "authentic London gastropub." Really? How can it be an authentic London anything without actually BEING IN LONDON? Elsewhere on their site, they refer to it as a "replica." Hmmm...saying whatever you need to say to make more money, anyone?

I think boycott is a better word than ban... but like elizabeth wright said, most old city regulars cant afford to eat there anyway. Sure, we could help her move, but will we have to help other stapel old city small buissneses relocate if they are forced out? ive worked and played in the old city for over ten years and its a matter of community.

class war! don't trust anyone over 30K...
j/k , some of my best friends are millionaires..

Let's inform the squatters. They can piss all over C&G storage.

We are what we value. A large part of our society and culture does not value highly that which is not commercial or driven primarily by profit. There should be place for the small simple ventures whose purpose is to provide a service for the under-served and the neglected.
