And what exactly is a “bad kid survival kit”? Click here to view tvbreakfast‘s photo in its entirety, and read some commentary. Some commenters seem to think graffiti might be involved.

What is the provenance of this peerless napkin? And what possibly supernatural phenomenon is being depicted? S. Pigeon has some theories.

Happy Friday, you guys! Quit looting department stores now and adopt a pet please!

Jack — 7 year old male

Jack is just your typical one-eyed friendly kitty! He is Mr. Personality and will win you over in no time at all! Want a best friend? Jack’s your cat. This fella has lived with other cats before, and might not mind a new brother or sister at all! Arrrrr matey! And don’t forget! Our Cat-A-Palooza specials continue through July…name your OWN adoption fee for all cats over 6 months of age! For reals!

Lakota– 10 month old male Doberman

Are you ready for a luxury-sized dog? Meet Lakota. He’s big (and likely to get even bigger), strong, friendly and playful. He’s still just an overgrown puppy and has a lot to learn. He’s looking for an active adopter that can keep up with his high energy level, and who will take him to a rewards-based training class right away.

All pets adopted from SFSPCA have received a pre-adoption veterinary exam and behavior assessment, vaccinations, spay/neuter surgery and a microchip.

Reader subframe poses something of a moral quandary:

What do you do when there’s a cool bike locked up around the corner from your house for like 6 months?

It is pretty clear it’s been abandoned/forgotten. I’m certainly not about to steal a bike, although if I knew who’s it was I’d offer em money for it. Somebody WILL steal it eventually though, I’m sure.

I’d put up a post on CL, but that might simply alert thieves to a bike that’s ripe for stealing.

What do you do?

From the desk of photographer Cranky Old Mission Guy:

Always keep a puke-bucket handy when you’re on a bender.

More.

I wonder if it worked. I bet they’re a cute couple.

If you don’t, a good Samaritan like reader Margo might write you a friendly note and leave it in your bottle cage.

When she left Casanova a while after, Margo noticed the bike was gone. She hopes, as do we, that it left with its rightful owner.

Eye on Blogs explains:

Bay to Breakers spokesman Sam Singer moments ago fired off a sobering press release: Next year’s race, the 100th, will take place on May 15th — and no alcohol of any kind will be tolerated.

Is this even possible? Enforceable? Won’t the people revolt? Look what fun they’re having!

So proves this joy-saturated love letter of a music video by filmmaker Daniel Jarvis and Sierra Frost of local band The Downer Party. It contains the above two images, and LOTS MORE. Says Jarvis:

Shot on the Canon HV-30 aka “The Cowboy Cam” at Mission Dolores Park, 24th and Harrison, The Uptown, The Phone booth, Bernal Heights (courtesy of Loren Risker) and all over the roads of San Francisco!

Here it is:

(By the way, isn’t that band name kind of a redundant play on words, seeing as how the Donner Party were a pack of total downers anyway?)
