So says Chronicle columnist and self-proclaimed Tonga Room liker, C.W. Nevius. Read ALL about it in his current coulumn at the link provided below. Will the Tonga Room survive? Will it be demolished and cast aside to the ash heap of history? Will it be relocated? Will it rise again from said ash heap like the proverbial Phoenix? Whatta douchebag. Sure "it's time for the Tonga room to go". Sure, how about also burning the vaults of the American National Film Registry and maybe the Library of Congress, and then move over to destroy all the files at the National Register of Historic places. After all it's just a bunch of "OLD" irrelevant stuff taking up space. That's what they said when they destroyed Penn Station 40 years ago and installed the more 'modern and convenient' Madison Square Garden. I love how he points out how one of the subjects in the article hadn't been to the Tonga since September. "And there you have it". Whatta snarky piece of sh*t. Someone should ask Nevius how often he goes to his favorite bar/restaurant, but then he'd have to tell us that he hasn't been to Applebee's since September. This guy is so typical of a culture that has clearly lost its imagination and completely bankrupt of anything pertaining to color and invention. The best he can do at referencing what's hot right now is probably 'American Idol' and dining at Dave and Busters.
