Mission Mission

Where they store the coconuts.

We’re a week behind on this one, but there is a new coconut-only store at Mission and 24th, Coco Loco.  This shit is so fresh that there are no photos on Flickr, no Yelp page and no Foursquare venue, so you know it is still authy.  Two delicious coconuts full of milk for $5.   2770 Mission St.

This art car was found all over the Bay Area in 2005/2006,* including the best street in the entire Mission District, but is merely now a rarely viewed set of Flickr images.  Does anyone know whatever happened to this Lego art car?

* maybe earlier?  Flickr did not exist prior to then.  Mega tears.

Unlike me, some people were clearly not deterred by the rain and left their homes this weekend.  I’m glad they did, because it led to awesome gray-skied photos of Dolores Park.

From Ramona‘s profile of Chez Guerre:

Many believe that bringing higher end restaurants into war-zones will lead to gentrification and eventually to democracy.  “It gives people a reason to go to a neighborhood that they wouldn’t have been caught dead in before, or rather where dead is the only way they would have been caught there.”  To decrease the risk of being caught dead on your way to his restaurant John offers a complimentary armored transport service.  But he’s convinced that the surging popularity should be attributed as much to the promise of an entirely original dining concept as to a general death wish.

“Bender’s looked busy [last night],” notes reader and sender of this photograph Senor Hair, “There was like two straight blocks of this.”

Have you seen this painting?

Because someone stole it off the wall at Mission: Comics and Art yesterday. Link.

It was thunderstorming in Dolores Park, but that did not stop the police from hassling Pork in the Park:

While I could deal with the rain and all that bullshit what I couldn’t deal with was the fucking cops rolling up on me. I see dude strolling up with his fucking citation book and figure I should probably turn down Mack Attack and deal with this bullshit. Dude asks for id and checks the shit while he fills out his No Fun Allowed slip. He realizes my birthday is in a few days and gives me a break but tells me I got to move. I explain that I’ve done this before and the park dudes are cool with it as long as I clean up. Then dude gives me some retarded opened ended answer like telling me to pack it up and move “if you can.” If I fucking can? So I can stay?  He doesn’t give me an answer and basically it boils down to I can kick it but if his lieutenant comes through I’m getting a ticket and kicked out.
