THE IDES HAVE IT ... AT 7TH AND MONTANA!


IDES were popping at 7th and Montana this morning as Dapper Dan, known for his taste in plastic boutonnieres, made the scene sporting a new look. Gone were the beige suit and bright blue boutonniere and in their place was a navy blue ensemble and a purple boutonniere. The reaction from the crowd was predictably snIDE. "I'm telling you," said one witness, "That boutonniere is a weapon ... one of these days it's going to squirt seltzer water at us." "That day might be today," I replied, "Beware the IDES of March." Speaking of which, today was Neighbor Nicole's last day in Santa Monica. She decided a couple of weeks ago to pack everything up and move to Chicago. Why? Let's just say her enthusiasm for the Windy City was unbrIDE-aled ...!
