Silverback Ale – Mac Meda Postcards With Albert

May 3, 2010 by Albert 2 Comments

Back when Jack MacPherson was tending bar at the West End, some dorky beer salesperson stopped in promoting a new type of Ale. Normally these people would get their asses reamed and  run out.  As far as Jack was concern, there were only a handful of beers worth drinking. However, this one sparked his attention for the obvious. "Silverback Ale,” the salesperson pitched, … [Read more...] about Silverback Ale – Mac Meda Postcards With Albert

Drinking, Destruction, Sex – Police – La Jolla Mac Meda

February 28, 2010 by Albert 11 Comments

The Mac Meda Destruction Co. sounds like a joke, started as a joke, thrived as a joke and ended up like a joke. Or is it? Some of the teen-age, members of this loosely organized group boast the motto, "Drinking Destruction and Sex" Here's the joke punch line, written Jan 10 (1965): On that day, beer flowed freely among the young Mac Meda crowd - nearly 200 of them … [Read more...] about Drinking, Destruction, Sex – Police – La Jolla Mac Meda

Plane Crashes at WindanSea, La Jolla Killing Actor Phillip G. Bent and Folksinger Peter Sachse

November 20, 2009 by Albert 23 Comments

I never will forget it, it was one of those cloudless, perfect La Jolla  July summer days and all I could think about was doing a little bit of body whomping at WindanSea with a friend of mind. As we were walking to the pumphouse from Big Rock,  a plane flew by a bit low, not uncommon for those days. Then it banked, rounded again and did some stunts, catching the attention of … [Read more...] about Plane Crashes at WindanSea, La Jolla Killing Actor Phillip G. Bent and Folksinger Peter Sachse

October 6, 2009 by Albert Leave a Comment

Back in 2000 Jack thought it was be pretty cool to let Mars know of Mac Meda. So, not knowing all the details of how he or others did it, Mac Meda joined the mission of exploration and discovery. A compact disc bearing Mac Meda Destruction Co was included on the next Mars Exploration Rover-2003 that would search for geologic evidence for water.  Because once you find water ... … [Read more...] about Mac Meda Goes to Mars The Second Time

Eric Burdon and the Animals – “When I Was Young” Back At La Jolla’s WindanSea and Sea Lane

September 7, 2009 by Albert 2 Comments

Over a year ago, Sue Olney had some old time photos of WindanSea and Sea Lane. Well, Kip "Pinky" Ives made a video out of it, and launched it on youtube. The video took off and within a couple of months it was receiving 1000s of views and hit the #1 spot under youtubes  search of "La Jolla." It became a RF to other La Jolla elite/snobbish videos like the cultured stuff of La … [Read more...] about Eric Burdon and the Animals – “When I Was Young” Back At La Jolla’s WindanSea and Sea Lane

LA JOLLA BEACHES BEING ABUSED BY COMMERCIAL VENDORS
Some bad things are happening to our La Jolla beaches and that is, vendors are blocking off areas for private parties and making large profits off public beaches. Now as the law reads, these vendors can get a permit to have a private party and that permit is ONLY for 50 people, BUT, they CAN NOT ASK or MAKE you leave (even if they show you your permit)  if you are sitting in a spot they want to have their party at ...
