Your two favorite things done went and had a baby.

Lindsey knows:

Last night I asked a couple people who they were voting for mayor.

[...]

But more importantly, Omer told me:

“I’m voting for MYSELF. Now go the hell home.”

Of course. Me too. Read on.

What happens when the rock & roll pizza slingers at Arinell win a $25 lotto scratcher?  Well, if this past Saturday night is any indication, this calls for celebration in the form of a 15-minute booze break!  It was mildly excruciating to see that whole pizza just laying there waiting to be eaten while we were locked out of the shop, but it was well worth it to see the boys in such rare form when they returned, hi-fiving patrons and generally having a merry old time.

Wait a minute, do I really want my pizza slingers hi-fiving patrons?

Here’s the official spiel:

[I]t’s CRUEL SUMMER’s first show, a band starring Josh Yule, Thea Chacamaty, Chani [Hawthorne] & Sean [Mosley]. We don’t have a website. Sorry buds. We sound like Sonic Youth making illegitimate kin with the Wedding Present…with a girl singing. Sort of. Actually we don’t really know what we sound like so you’ll have to help us figure it out.

They do have a Facebook page though, on which you can listen to and download their first single, “White Flag.”

The show tonight at the Knockout also starts POW!, Big Hurt and Garden Club. RSVP and invite your friends!

Our buddy Carlos Bergfeld delivers the cold truth:

Whoa! What a story! Now what about Omer?

Among other things. Connecting the City explains:

[The North-South Bikeway] will be a continuous, safe and comfortable bikeway from San Francisco State University all the way to Aquatic Park linking important civic institutions like City College and City Hall along the way. On this route, you experience the unique flavor of San Francisco neighborhoods such as Glen Park, the Mission and Polk Street and the diverse local shops and restaurants that will benefit from this bikeway. Calmer streets, an improved pedestrian experience and bringing more people to local businesses will make these streets and neighborhoods better for everyone.

Watch the whole video:

Can’t wait!

(Thanks, Mai!)

The band is Caught in Motion and they’ve got a record release show coming up on the 18th at Cafe du Nord.

Her Majesty’s Secret Beekeeper is now selling fresh eggs, straight from the source — four feathery fluffball hens living in their storefront. I guess that’s what those available chicks were about.

Seriously though, are these not the fluffiest chickens ever, or am I such a city mouse that I don’t know what real chickens look like?

I mean, look at them!

I suppose that if some clever thief had enough time, he could remove some seat posts, wheels, and handlebars in order to make a clean getaway with all three frames sinces none of them are technically attached to the rack, but it would definitely be quite the ordeal, especially in broad daylight on a busy street. In the meantime, I must say this is quite the ingenious solution to buy some time for a quick drink or meal when you only have one lock to spare amongst your trio (and some cooperative frame geometry with which to work).

According to Mission Bicycle:

Not cool, Martha Stewart. But I’ll let it slide this time on account of this:
