> US dives are babies Yup. Here is our San Diego equivalent that goes back unchanged... well not quite but pretty much to pre WWII times. Mirrored bar with booths. Nestled in a mixed Hippie and Yuppie community of antique stores and bars catering to 30 somethings, and 2 blocks from the pier and the biggest surfing waves in San Diego. Ocean Beach (or OB) remained decently cheap unlike the rest of the coast because the airport is near and the jets fly over. Beach combers of a sort still live here. Ocean beach used to be so far from San Diego that it was an all day trip. People had second homes made of clapboard to stay overnight on weekends. One block down you'll find the last "head shop" from the 60s just in case you need a Furry Freak Brother comic or a hash pipe. A lot of the Mafia moved out here, they don't like snow and sleet anymore than anyone else. It was freezing cold here last night at 53, today's high is a brisk 65 degrees. Tom Waits' scruffy lovable downtown port city is long gone, a victim of a gigantic redevelopment swindle that netted a former mayor a cool billion.
