Each time you mention a place, I am right fucking there in my head, visualizing all the details that I know so well. Just a quick question though... the greasy hamburger place mentioned (by Rasputins), you didn't happen to mean I.B. Hoagies (which is actually across from Tower) did you? They have great fries (especially their curly fries, yummy) which come in buckets but I can't think of another place that really does that around Tele.

No, this isn't on the main street, it's on the side street (if you're going up Telegraph to the campus it's off on your right behind Rasputin's). I think it might be across the street from the park (the one next to the faculty parking). It's not a big place, it's actually a hole in the wall with standing room only. They just serve burgers and fries, but they are really fucking good. I wish I could remember the name of it, but it's not coming to me right now.
