FREE Chowder and Tunes at Frankenart Mart

This time last week, I went to Frankenart Mart for the first time and (just as importantly) my first free hot dog in our fair city. Sausages abound in San Francisco, if you know where to look, but the good old-fashioned flaccid, terracotta-hued wieners? A little harder to come across.

Rise and Shine: Jack Early Park

I woke up this morning hungering for the sun and a hike, leaped out of bed, and went on my way. Now that I’m remembering and writing this, I very well may have left the cat in my room and the window wide open. I also didn’t pack too well

Bean There (or Bean Square)

Life realizations are coming fast and furious these days. Turns out your mid-twenties is a period not only of astoundingly poor productivity, but also of consecutive, exponentially foolish decisions about the nebulous future. Landscape architecture and goat tending in New Zealand vie for the plan next month. What’ll actually happen,

Win Tix to See Tim & Eric and Their Movie!

I realized suddenly that I had gotten a lot closer to my brother when he showed me this brilliant urinal shower video  over a recent holiday. It’s just a small piece of the genius that is Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job, which will presently erupt as a full-length
