for uniform distribution without segregation of the ingredient materials, it is important that particle size and density of materials be closely matched. some bloom once a year, others bloom several times a year and some even bloom continuously. until grasshopper was introduced into the marketplace, foliar fertilization was rarely used and then only as a supplement. continuous and excessive use of chemical fertilizer had led to low farmland efficiency, serious in the beginning of june the next summer, big green canes started growing out of the ground and green leaves actually started to pop out of the seemingly dead twigs we had planted last summer.

Amelias…

I tended bar there for years. Shots of tequila gold and baby dykes dressed up like John Travolta or down like Sal Mineo. And now it’s a history lesson. Little did we crazy drunk girls know we were making history…:)

Lord, that was a beautiful, beautiful place. Dark wood, booths…paneled, beams. A classic San Francisco-y place. Fucker could have made it work, but he was a greedy stupid sack of shit.

I’m glad the bastard’s suffering, a lot, wherever he is.

I heard that he *had* gotten away.

I still can’t even look at it.

That’s awesome! I had no idea they did that every year; I guess I don’t look up often enough when walking down the street.

(Quick note, Every Bar in SF is actually a different website. The photo is from mine, The San Francisco Bar Experiment.)

Seems a number of those “throwback” writers try to remember the name of the restaurant at Guerr/16: Sefi’s.

In July, 1989 when business started going off the owner doused the kitchen with gasoline at 4 a.m. and then dribbled a trail behind him as he walked to the front door. He tossed a match over his shoulder as he exited. By then the room was full of gas fumes.

The explosion burned off the back of his clothes and a lot of his skin. He drove himself to a hospital down the peninsula hoping they wouldn’t have heard about an explosion and fire in SF.

After posting bail he tried to sneak out of the country to Spain.
