NY Times Discovers BoBo Retail Paradise

Today's NY Times Style section uncovers a semi-secret BoBo shop in - where else? - Malibu. (For those unfamiliar with the term, we're referring to "bourgeois bohemian"). The NY Times is perplexed - how can a store sell T-Shirts AND bicycles? Teepees AND give away FREE ORANGE JUICE? And in a STRIP MALL? For the love of all that is good and holy, what is this frankenstore that dares to sell more than one item? And in true NY Times fashion (Ha! a pun!), they must find a celebrity connection, no matter how tenuous. And since we can't resist a good starfucking reference, we'll mention the owner, Nina Garduno, dates Leisha Hailey from the L Word. The rest of the article ($200 for faux-spiritual shirts) bored us too much to keep reading.
