Oakland Blogger's Party A Fun Time; Visit Ave and Pican Restaurants!

  More at Zennie62.com | Follow me on Twitter! Pican Restaurant is in the middle of the revived Uptown in Oakland. Ok. After blasting the organizers of the previous Oakland Blogger's Party for not inviting me and for it being an " All Whites gathering " Oakland Blogger VSmoothe ( A Better Oakland ) was cool enough to invite me to last Wednesday's party, and you know, it was a good event with some diversity in the house. My only misgiving is that the folks' of color were not all active Oakland Bloggers like me or Michael Caton ( An Oakland Citizen ), or...VSmoothe or the good folks who write the Myrtle Street Review , who didn't make it but I'll get them to the next one! (That's a bit of a prod to get it going, folks!) But that written, it was a total blast! I'm happy to see that Oakland has a vibrant culture of people who care enough to write about what's happening in it. I love that they're engaged and it's good to see
