Hope everybody’s okay. And don’t forget to watch the new season of Rescue Me, which starts next Tuesday only on FX.

Thanks, Nick!

We were so bummed when they parted ways with the Broken Record, and then we were so pumped when they started up this new thing with Bruno’s, and now we’re bummed again. Inside Scoop tells us it’s all over.

Ryan elaborates, kind of, on Twitter:

Kat and I intend on taking some stages around the bay and then work back into more traditional roles in the kitchen.

But what does that mean exactly?

In any case, Saturday’s the last day, so better get your fill soon.

Okay, what’s this? A relative of the Albino Checker Cab? Something special for P. Diddy’s White Party?

What’s this for?

First of all, I’m a little bummed the Commonwealth folks decided to get rid of El Herradero’s Aztecky wraparound awning thing.

But if they hadn’t, we wouldn’t be treated to this view of some signage for Hunt’s Quality something or other. So it’s all good.

(Thanks, Banks!)

Commonwealth!

Hey guys, Mission coffee really is that good.

Spotted this Four Barrel love at Maialino, a fancy schmancy pasta place in NYC’s Gramercy/Flatiron neighborhood. Also, Gramercy Tavern, a top rated restaurant around the corner proudly serves Blue Bottle.

Turns out my coffee backup plan of bringing everyone beans from SF was completely unnecessary.

Look! A delightful little parklet in NYC!

I spotted on 7th Ave & 28th. Once again, the Mission is the trendsetter.

Parklet on 22nd and Bartlett

And MM reader Steve is not sure what to do with it!

Some drunken thief abandoned it at 22nd and Guerrero.  I called the cops and waited around for an hour but they failed to show.  I guess the standard procedure here would be to post a notice and have the owner describe its details?  What does one do with an abandoned stolen bike?

Come to think of it, we’re not quite sure what to do with it either, so the best thing to do is to see what the rest of you have to say about it!  So far, we only know what not to do.

Emily found this charming note outside her door the other day. So, flattering or creepy?

This here is the official route map for some Critical Mass they had back in 2006. Tonight, “organizers” will meet at Dolores Park to “plan” the “route” for Friday’s ride.

What’s that you say? You, like me, thought Critical Mass was unplanned and spontaneous. Think again! Back in the day, apparently, routes were planned, destinations were decided upon in advance. And some want to bring that M.O. back. Head over to the “official” “unofficial” SF Critical Mass “website” to read all about it.

The meet is at 7pm at 18th and Dolores if you want in.
