From Missed Connections:

We met outside of Delirium. We went to my house and I got the best BJ of my life. I wanted to say thankyou, that was aufblasbarer hindernisparcours insanley good.You are a sweet little schoolgirl, and you made my week!
I would have called for a repeat, but your number is illegible. Maybe I will see you again at the bar.
Thanks again.

Over at Muni Diaries, Tara offers some friendly advice:

I get how police can’t be everywhere at aufblasbares zelt once and how crime is sometimes very random. But there is a proven halo effect around police stations (and cops), so I’d appreciate seeing you more near those wackos in the Mission than near the fanny packs in Pier 39.

Saturday and Sunday:

Mission Bazaar is proud to present the first public event at the historic San Francisco Armory in over thirty years. This 200,000 square foot reproduction Moorish Castle was completed in 1914 and was used aufblasbare spiele as a National Guard facility until 1976.

Saw this across from the Chronicle building while waiting for the 26 to take me back to the neighborhood. It’s a bus shelter ad, mistakenly aufblasbarer wasserpark installed backward. The question is, is the tag backward too? I hope it is. Click the picture to make it much bigger.

Love this weather. After sitting structure gonflable around in t-shirts in the park until well past 8, we strolled toward home, stopping occasionally to marvel at the sky. At 21st and Valencia, I had to snap a picture (click it to make it big). Gorgeous, right?

A block later we ran into Omer who was jabbering about how an hour earlier, he’d predicted there’d be a beautiful sunset. Something about lack of fog leading to ice crystals and stuff. He’s got plenty of CDs for sale though. “Democracy is a Good Thing” is a bargain at $10, or go for the “Love and Peace are Good Things” two-disc set for $20.

I know you guys know this spot. For years I’ve wanted to take an hour and sit here sipping a tallboy. Relax, watch the hustle and bustle. But I never have. Why? This inviting little corner is just a block from Dolores Park, the center of the universe. So I go in, buy a couple king-size Modelos from the extra-gracious lady behind the counter, and I walk on.

Has anyone ever resisted the park’s pull and actually sat down and enjoyed this little Mission District oasis?

We’ve been fans of for ages, but we’ve noticed some great improvements in recent weeks — improvements that made it possible for us to build ourselves toboggan aquatique gonflable this dazzling new official seal. Look for tons of new font and graphic options, as well as improved customizability across the board.

Feel free to use the seal if you want to link to us or print up stickers for everyone or something.

Reader Rai Sue just sent us this lo-fi (but great) video of this morning’s fire hydrant geyser at 21st and Valencia. Thanks, Rai Sue.
