At approximately 4pm yesterday afternoon, zombies once again took to the streets of San Francisco to “…rouse their brethren from the dusky sleep and make their presence known in the city of San Francisco.”
The semi-regular San Francisco Zombie Swarm has become a tradition in the City in recent years. Ever insistent that they are [...]

So, the assignment today was ‘Signs of Hope’ - a bit cheesy, we agree, but the amount of electricity in the air here in San Francisco this inaugural weekend is truly palpable, and we wanted to catch it on film (cf card) if we could. So, we struck out yesterday on a trek around the [...]

At some point, I may have to accept that there’s just no way that I’ll ever successfully see everything there is to see in massive Golden Gate Park. Friends who have lived here much longer than I have tell me that they’ve still never seen the polo fields, or the bison, or the windmill. I’m [...]

…is like a day without sunshine. Except, we have a lot of days without sunshine, so that analogy doesn’t really work in this instance. Regardless…
At Market and Powell today, there was a gathering held protesting the Israeli government’s actions in the current conflict between Palestine and Israel. The protest drew approximately 35 people at its [...]
5 reasons why I think it was a good thing that I ended up missing the KFOG ‘Kaboom’ concert:
Los Lobos headlined. Oh sorry, I had to answer the phone, 1982 was calling, and wanted to know why Los Lobos sucked so much. In 1982.
It screws up traffic. According to local sources, the whole thing makes [...]

Last week, I did something I’ve been wanting to do since I arrived in San Francisco: I took my camera, my brand new tripod (a Bogen-Manfrotto 055XPROB for my fellow camera geeks) and a warm jacket and headed to Yerba Buena Island to shoot some pics of the City at Sunset.
Yerba Buena is uniquely positioned [...]

So, out shopping and generally enjoying the holiday merriment today, and ran into Frank Chu (shocker). I introduced him to Christine and moved on with our Union-Squarish activities. As we were coming back and hit Market though, we ran into what appeared to be an impromptu Solid Gold dance session on the street, with 40 [...]

Okay, maybe hilarity didn’t ensue, but Christmas has definitely hit The City.
I took a stroll down to Union Square this evening to take in the sights and walk off a rough and difficult day, and was richly rewarded. The tree was magnificent as always (and, of course, environmentally friendly courtesy of PG&E), and Macy’s has [...]

So I found out yesterday that plastic bags have been banned from grocery stores in The City. Apparently, this move was approved by the City Council at the beginning of this year, but I wasn’t aware of it until I went into the grocery store last night and they made a big deal out of [...]
