My friend Mark and I had lunch at Piccolo's yesterday, most likely for the last time before it closes at the end of the month. Piccolo's has been in business here in Denver for 50 years, but the owners decided that it was just too expensive to continue operating. When we arrived at 11:00, we had our choice of seating, but by noon, the place was packed, everyone wanting to visit the iconic restaurant one more time. It was like that when the Bonnie Brae Tavern closed down, too. It was impossible to get a table there the final few weeks it was open. In any case, lunch was good, and Mark, seen in the photograph on the left, is doing well and tells me he has jury duty this coming Monday. My advice to him, if he winds up being a potential juror, is to tell the defense attorney that his client looks guilty, and he will vote accordingly if selected to be on the jury. That should keep him from being selected, although it might also get him thrown into jail. If so, my bad.
