They were killers who wanted money, but the public saw the gangsters and a more romantic light.

When i had the opportunity to come to the ballroom, it is such a thrill for me because i know that this provided inspiration for fitzgerald, and the kind of stories that he was interested in to make money. The saturday evening post stories. This is the epitome of that huge volume of work that he produced that he felt a little bit ashamed of, but are wonderful stories. And so i see this as a real positive place for his career.

Plenty of 70s and 80s inside the bay even 90s into the south bay and tripledigit heat for some of the interior valleys. Comfortable 60s and low 70s near the coastline. Over the bay clear. Mild to begin with. This afternoon 93 napa, 100 livermore, 96 santa rosa. Lets check the roads with elizabeth. This is right around the time they clear a lot of the overnight roadwork. Get things ready for the commute. Same thing this morning. A lot of it is cleared or clearing. We are checking road sensors around the 205 580 merge. Delays start in tracy and continue westbound so the drive time between the Altamont Pass to 680 still looks okay still in the clear 16 minutes but that will likely change here in the next half hour. And at the bay bridge, still looks good into San Francisco eastbound there is roadwork into oakland. Thats your latest kcbs traffic.
