Chino in Chino

| | Comments (2)

On my way back from an interview Wednesday afternoon in Chino, I stopped in at Comic Madness, a comic shop in that burg, for my weekly fix. Music was playing as I browsed but I wasn't paying attention.

Suddenly a lyric jumped out at me: "Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee/First one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me."

Of course it was "Friend of the Devil" by the Grateful Dead, a song I'm well acquainted with. First time I'd ever heard the Chino line while in Chino city limits, though.

[I'll probably hit a store, sure. And I do go to San Diego although it's possible I'll skip this year. Check Friday's column for a FCBD piece. -- DA]
