Not sure how many people actually go to NOPNA’s monthly general meetings, but I keep getting these facebook notifications, so maybe someone other than myself is interested. It looks like they’ll be discussing a new Pot club at 350 Divis which I’m sure is a cause we can all rally behind. And there will also [...]
The other day, SFWeekly ran a post about nicknames, the Jersey Shore, and the city’s Supervisors. If you’ve been religiously hate-watching (secretly love-watching) MTV’s Jersey Shore for the past month then you know these kids are totally nuts with these bizarre social rituals that make them difficult to recognize as being part of the same [...]
In what might eventually prove to be a feeble attempt at connecting with his adopted city, Andrew is watching every episode of Nash Bridges’ inaugural season. His analysis of this once-popular television program can be found here and on the SFAppeal every Friday until the SF Public Library makes him return the DVDs. If you [...]
Look, I know that’s not how the quote goes, I watched all four hours of Kenneth Branagh’s Hamlet. NOT THE POINT. The point is Poleng announced today (via Facebook, barf) that 2009 was a little rougher for them than we thought. So the end of January will bring the end of Poleng. This is terrible! [...]

In Broke Ass Stuart’s regular “Broke Ass of the Week” feature the titular editor profiles our delightfully bizarre photographer-neighbor Merkley??? (That’s not a question, that’s how he writes his name.) Besides throwing a couple curveball answers to Stuart’s form-letter questions, the interview lets us know he lives in Alamo Square/Lower Haight, which (for me at [...]
This interesting little map shows what people are renting on Netflix in the 94117 and comes to you via SFHaps and a corresponding article on the NYTimes.
I feel like Milk is totally unsurprising, not because this is San Francisco and everyone loves seeing places they’ve been on screen, but because all the straight white people [...]
That’s right, it’s National Hot Toddy Day! And while MissionMission and SFWeekly will tell you to go get yours the Humphry Slocombe way, we say our neighborhood (always) does it better. So go out and celebrate tonight at Madrone and ask for their extra special Hot Toddy. They make it with their own homemade apple-cinnamon [...]
Spotted yesterday in the Western Addition. More photos of the painting in progress at The World’s Best Ever
JUST KIDDING. There’s not a real sniper in Alamo Square, instead there’s just another ridiculous incredible plot to an upcoming episode of Trauma. (Seriously, how are they still filming this?)
SFAppeal, being somewhat more legitimate than ourselves, reports that filming is going on all day today from 7am – 8pm, so if you live around [...]
Citoyens de la Republique de Divisadero: Enjoy the high-priced additions to your neighborhood. But if you lose your job don't come crying that you have no affordable options in your nabe. Of course, you can always eat cake. - TinyTim
