A few months ago, I was perusing my Netflix On-Demand box, looking for something to watch, when it recommended a documentary called “The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill“. This remarkable movie is the true story of a Bohemian St. Francis and his remarkable relationship with a flock of wild red-and-green parrots. Mark Bittner, a dharma bum*, [...] I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of a better way to spend my Easter Sunday than by attending a cult discussion about UFO sightings and awareness. When I was growing up, I remember those UFO specials they used to run on television on Friday nights. They always spoke of alien abductions and [...] There are a couple comments that I have about this mural for the Friends of the Urban Forest. According to their website, Friends of the Urban Forest assist in the planting of 1,000 trees throughout San Francisco each year. All you have to do is contact them and you can organize a tree planting. My question [...] I took a walk over to Marlowe the other day and snapped some photos of their window quote competition. According to their website, they had a quote competition that allowed patrons to vote for their favorite window quotes that would then be etched into the windows. The contest is apparently over, but the options are [...] Don’t put away those umbrellas. We had a nice day thrown in there yesterday, but it was only a sneak-peek as the forecast for the rest of the week calls for rain, rain and more rain.

On my way out of South Park, I noticed this sign above Ruchi South Indian Cuisine. Up until recently, this sign still [...] I came across this street art on Mission Street between 8th and 9th while I was walking from the Public Library Main Building to the Cups and Cakes Bakery to pick up a treat. It caught my eye because I’ve rarely seen spray paint create such a philosophical concept in such a small space and [...] Keeping with the spirit of Giants FanFest, I snapped this photo of the huge scoreboard over center field because the message on the bottom right caught my eye as peculiar. So you can have Lou Seal, the Giants’ mascot, show up at your party?!? If you’ve been to a Giants game, you’ve probably seen that daily [...] Yesterday, I stopped in to meet with the owner of Radius and speak with him about their upcoming opening. He ended up getting caught up somewhere else and postponed our meeting, but I had a chance to speak with one of their contractors, Carlos, who was a very interesting guy.
Carlos showed [...] I’ve come across these guerilla stickers posted on street poles and light fixtures around the City. I’m not entirely sure what the goal is, and I was even more confused when I “googled Artists General Warning” (as suggested) to find abstract opinions about this on-going “art exhibit”. Not sure how it makes me feel. How [...] |
