There’s a fine line between being a fan and ending up on the
wrong side of a restraining order—especially when the
object of your adoration is one of the planet’s great
comedic geniuses, a muse to some of the country’s best
and most oddball directors, living proof that comebacks
can happen at any age, and purveyor of the best deadpan
expression any side of the Mississippi. But why do
we love the things and people we love? What makes
an actor, or coffee shop, or doctor, or salad, the very,
very best? With Bill Murray as our muse, we sought
the answers to these difficult questions. So to celebrate
this Murray Best Of, take a page from Phil Connors, throw
caution to the wind, and stuff your face with the finest fare local
diners, burger joints, and restaurants have to offer in Dining Out.
After all, who knows what tomorrow will bring? Make it Suntory time
with an After Hours visit to your favorite café or
bar, where adventure—and a strong likelihood of
miscommunication on par with a visit to a foreign
country—abound. Let Frank Cross take
you on an Arts Scene tour of the county’s artistic offerings, but expect
a bumpy ride riddled with mysterious guests from past, present,
and future. Do some shopping at your favorite local
book, music, or flower store in Burnin’ Money. Just make
sure Audrey II isn’t lurking in the shadows. Pay a visit
About Town to your favorite local professionals, from
lawyers to dentists to veterinarians to gopher-removal
hacks. Maybe we made that last category up, but nothing
says professional quite like a man on a golf course with
dynamite. Our Get Out section proves you don’t
have to join the army to have an adventure. And
keep an eye, and man-portable particle accelerator, on the
county’s heroes and villains in Community Watch.
So thanks to Bill Murray. And thanks to the readers, voters,
ballot counters, photographer, writers, editors, designers, sales reps,
models, and—of course—business owners, community volunteers, and
other locals who made this happen.
