Telstar Logistics somehow got invited up to the top of the US Bank building at 22nd and Mission, and took a handful of nice shots. Can we have a rave up there now, please?

Tonight at Gravel & Gold, the first in a series of sex talks by the shop’s resident sexpert Nile Nash. Tonight’s talk is about anatomy and contraception, the next one will be about pregnancy, and the last one will teach you how to bang good. I’m looking forward to that one.
The event appears to be free, and includes refreshments. Details here.
More carson! Nick Fisher was on the scene last night.
“The fire somehow turned on the horn and headlights which were both blasting for the duration.”
“[The firemen] are trying to get the hood off to put out the fire still burning under there. Eventually they sawed it off.”
Just a week and a half since 2 cars on 18th Street were torched in a row. Still not cool, bro.
UPDATE: Thanks to actual journalism, The SF Appeal gets the official story so far:
“[A]ccording to SFPD spokesperson Sgt. Michael Andraychak, the arson task force has determined that the fire was accidental in nature, and is not believed to be connected to last week’s intentionally set fires.
Andraychak, who says he spoke directly with arson investigators, confirms Talmadge’s report that the fire began in one car, then spread to the second. God, sucks for the second guy, doesn’t it? Best of luck to all in dealing with that insurance claim.“
Three friends are riding three bikes but then one of the bikes gets a flat and no one thought to bring along a pump. What do they do next?
Anyone have a better idea?
I hope epic fun like this figured into the vision for a renovated Dolores Park last night.
Chug!!
The Boo Blog tells us what it’s like to see a shooting in the Mission, and then think about it nonstop afterward.
Here’s the event:
I saw a kid in a red hoodie pointing his gun at another young man. I don’t remember what either looked like. I told the student I was working with to get behind something and I did the same, not that it mattered. The shooter was, after all, a kid, and like a kid, once the shots were fired, he ran away. I never saw his face, but I could tell by the way he was running that he was as scared as the kid he was shooting at.
Here’s a thought on the aftermath:
City blocks are resilient things. People say that about nature, but city blocks are amazing to me because they are complete neutral–they are created and recreated daily by the people who live on them. After the police were gone and people stopped making dumb comments like the one I made, the block has returned to being the same kind of ugly/beautiful urban block it had been before.
And there’s plenty more. Read on.
