Repression

On the N, a Dutch man is telling a French woman how he finds himself in San Francisco.
"...That's why I left Holland. I couldn't stand it much longer. In Holland people hold you back. If you act crazy, people are like, "Heck no.'"

Gosh darn those Dutch.

Stop the presses

I heard this on the radio news this morning, "It turns out that a grenade lobbed at President Bush during a visit to Eastern Europe was intended to harm him."

Do you think there was a crack team of experts working that one out?

Landmark

I'm driving home around 10pm. I make a left at the unremarkable intersection of Geary and Stanyan where to my surprise, a full-sized chartered tour bus is double parked. I turn to see what perviously overlooked San Francisco site is worth a visit. It is a Kinko's.

If you're ever in town, don't miss it. Apparently, it's a really good one.

Change of pace

I went to the late show of Millions. There were eight of us in the theatre; six of us alone, and one couple. It was intensely satisfying to outnumber them.

Or suspenders

Dear Young Man I Passed on My Way to Work,

When you find that your pants are so loose that you must clutch several inches worth of waistband in your fist in order to actually walk, it may be time to rethink your style. You might start by purchasing (dare I say it?)a belt.

Love,
A Well Wisher
