The hard boiled detective all began with the Continental Op......The House in Turk Street refers to the Black Bird where I have been told Dashiell Hammett drank. It is on Turk.....which brings me to Cookies place at 220 Turk, The Coral Sea....I feel I could easily have been assimilated back into time for these Tenderloin bar crawls.....even before Harvey Milk Aunt Charlies on Turk ..... I remember the queens with the face lifts.....San Francisco has great bars.....throw in guys like Dashiel Hammett....Jack London......William Saroyan......I always loved the Tenderloin...when I drank there I was told that the cops that patrolled it got hazard pay.....I do not know for sure....I do know I was protected...and when my horse came in the envelope was always there....
