Am I the only person who finds this rather enticing? In any case, the fact they named this event (band?) after a creature which purportedly sucks blood from livestock (Ed. Note: chupacabra means “goat sucker” in Spanish) is pure gravy. No pun intended.

Yesterday I was amazed and actually quite pleased to notice signs of life at this long-derelict store front. Curious to know what was slated to grace this space I asked a man working on the premises. He said he was not completely certain but thought that the M & W Laundromat across the street was going to place a dry cleaning establishment there. Whether or not this is true remains to be seen— but I am certain the Corner Frenzy’s inimitable Miriam will fact-check me! In any case, its come a long way from the time I walked by to encounter a trio of men with their pet goat!*
