I know I mentioned this in last week’s column, but thank you again to Masis’s Bakery, Fratelli’s Pizza, and Classy Cuts at 2064 Verdugo Blvd. for the wonderful mixer they hosted for us last week. Great food and the promise of a great haircut for yours truly later this week. I hope Classy Cuts can do something about my unruly locks.

Time’s running out to join our annual golf classic at the Verdugo Hills Golf Course.
