Wine - Good and Plenty
The wine list at Bin 189 in Lake Arrowhead impresses with quality and quantity. The heck with 99 bottles of beer on the wall. The curved glass wall of the private-dining Magnum Room at Bin 189 restaurant — lined floor to ceiling with some 700 wine bottles — lure oenophiles from the main section of the lobby at Lake Arrowhead Resort and Spa in Lake Arrowhead. Alas, a closer inspection reveals these icons of grape lust are empty (an earthquake insurance requirement), their contents consumed by previous guests

Intelligencer - August 2008
Hilton Hotels has partnered with Weimaraner photographer William Wegman and Crypton Super Fabrics (noted for its dog beds with stain-, water-, and microbial-resistant fabrics) to offer pet hospitality. In addition to the Wegman-designed pillows, dogs and family members traveling with them will appreciate the placemat, food and water bowls, and take-away Crypton totes (with organic treats; biodegradable waste bags; travel-sized disinfectant, deodorizer, and cleaner; and a Hilton pet collar tag).

PSST - August 2008
Founded last year by Phillip Hubler, the Music Explorers Society meets monthly, attending musical shows and festivals.

Horoscope August 2008
Palm Springs Horoscopes - Your Mars and Saturn align this month, and order is the keyword. Account for everything. Things in the air, not on paper, threaten extinction unless you supply the sweat equity. Make lists: pro and con, keep and throw away, commit and disengage. The little details in perfect order are the key to success. Get busy!

Editor's Letter
My friend Brett revels in other people’s misery. He is one with his TiVo, missing nary an episode of too many reality shows. He howls when calamity befalls certain characters and critiques their actions (or performances in the talent competitions), yelling at his HD behemoth with either the conviction of a Baptist congregation or the ruthlessness of a tough love counselor.
