Herb Caen Memorial Martini Society

Someone found my site Googling "Herb Caen Memorial Martini Society". Guess who came in first? Although, until now, I did not realize that there was such a society (although I am not surprised), I am quite honored to find my ranking here. It would seem that there is a Herb Caen Martini Appreciation Society or perhaps a Herb Caen Martini Society, but I must be the first Herb Caen Memorial Martini Society.

Herb Caen was wrong on two points, one of them involving the Catholic Church and the other involving the martini, which he thought ought to be made with his beloved Vitamin V, rather than good, proper, upstanding and wholesome gin (oh Lent, oh Lent, only, what, 38 days to go?!?).

However, no one, and I mean no one, captured the spirit and feeling of San Francisco like Herb Caen. So, to come in first for Herb Caen Memorial Martini Society is quite an honor.

Now, about that other Google search.

I have no idea what one would be hoping to find by looking for this, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I certainly had no intention of linking our fine bishop to the dark one!
