The owner of the coffee shop I frequent (Cafe Corsa on Figueroa & 23rd), gets to test ride this on Sunday:
Yes, that is the new 2008 Ducati 848 Superbike, which is technically not for sale yet (he's riding a demo unit). Probably a little bit too much bike for my virgin motorcycle dreams...but still so pretty.

Cafe Corsa? What's it like? I've been hoping to find (though not actively seeking) a nice little independent coffeehouse around here.
It's nice, he sells direct trade coffee, makes good espresso drinks (though I normally just have regular coffee from the Clover machine). The only real downside is that he doesn't have wifi, but I've actually come to view that as a good thing. It forces me to do stuff like read and write without my laptop. If you let me know, I'll treat you to a cup of coffee if you want.
I've often thought it would be really nice if there were places on campus without wifi. It's good to have that option removed every so often, I think.
Yeah, that sounds great. When would be good for you? I don't really have any plans for Saturday (is that finally tomorrow? it's been such a long week) or Monday, so either of those days would be alright.
