I know it was a bar for a century, but what was the name of it back then?

For a few minutes I could think of San Francisco without having to think about overpaid hipsters twittering each other over the next pillow fight.

Small world. guero’s blog brought me back to my old East LA neighborhood (Mt. Washington).

And zig wouldn’t happen to be the same zigster who used to post at a travel forum five or six years ago, would it?

I’ll see if there are any old photos I can scan and will ask him to confirm some stories.

For anyone who has roots in SF that go way back check this directory out. My grandfather found his father on here.

I am told that the former owner of Red’s Java house has a good old Mission accent. So does a writer for the Chron.

At any rate, my mother in law was raised in Bernal. She says “youse” for you (plural). This is bizarre as hell to me because I was born and raised in New Jersey and I thought we were the only ones saying “youse”!

Also, she calls Yosemite “YOZEMITE”.

Please contact me to work on this project!

You need to get on your Grand dad and squeeze all the history you can out him. You will never regret it.

We’ll submit questions — interview him, record him, post it here. Scan any photos as Mei mentions.

@Glenparker – no issues with the pronunciation, and fair enough on the definition as long as it’s revolving. 100 years from now they’ll probably be saying “41 6e 74 6f 6e 20 69 73 20 67 72 65 61 74 20 3a 29″ anyway. The robots will be making 3D renditions of flickr, and Mission Mission will be taught in high school history.

My grandfather is Irish American born in a house in the lower Mission and he says the first time he left California for WWII people thought he was from Brooklyn.

He is getting up there in years. I should document this before he passes.

Is there anyone interested in this history?

I use the Valencha test on the current crop of carpetbaggers. And my definition of carpetbagger is someone who lives here but did not go to high school in SF. But that’s just MY definition.
