Paris rooftops have nothing on ours.  Of course Paris has French cafés, Parisian girls, and warm croissants with strawberry preserves made in the kitchen.  If only we had such a café in the Grove.—a place to sit, sip espresso, smoke a Galois, read a paper, and watch the snow fall…maybe in the OG of the future—once we lose the British car shows.
