Or was it something else?
Anyways, I like cake a lot too.
Carlos Reyes on his way home this evening witnessed some aftermath:
the corner popeye’s is on was closed off via police tape. a few cop cars too. heard people around saying there was a shoot out, dunnnooo….
UPDATE: Was a stabbing it was. (Thanks, Rebecca.)
You guys! It’s a weird Monday night. Let’s go to the Knockout and see some rock ‘n’ roll! Wild Gift are playing first, at like 9:00.
They’re super fun, and perhaps they’ll explain what their song Alaskan Thunderfuck is all about. And look how cute they are!
There is hope for humanity after all! Andrea sent us an update on the naked lady painting that was jacked from the Homestead last week:
Through our special bartending investigative methods, we were able to contact the guilty party who had rented the room that Monday night. After a few days, the painting was returned via messenger. We’re happy to have her back and will be taking further methods to assure that all the naked ladies in the bar are permanently secured to the walls. The woman who stole it has been permanently 86′d.
Hear that? Per the new policy, if you’re a lady and you plan on being naked at Homestead, you will be permanently secured to the wall. Keep your clothes on.
If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Clueless is the movie of our generation. And now some nice folks want to bring it to the stage. They’re calling their performance “AS IF! Like, a performance, DUH!” and they need some help with funding. Our buddy Lux tells us more:
It’s being put together by Mission locals and performed at a warehouse at 17th and Capp. This project is going to rule!! The show begins in early April, and there is going to be and opening party Sat. March 12th with rad bands like Boys IV Men at Project One Gallery.
See the AS IF! Kickstarter page for complete details, a rad promotional video and more.
Renée (pictured) walks us through a tough one:
“We like brain puzzles here. Do you like brain puzzles?”
I can’t think of anything I like less, sir.
He begins. “Get out some paper.”
“You have 22 socks in a drawer. Half are red, half are green. If you are choosing them randomly, how long before you have a pair?”
The answer is three, of course. And I come to that eventually, though not before I am done administering fractional half-lives and pension plans for each individual sock.
“Simple thinking is the virtue of the unimaginative!” I say, losing.
You see, she’s too creative a thinker for her own good. Read on for more brain puzzles and whimsy.

Our pal Cranky Old Mission Guy delivers some good news:
Couple months ago, I noticed that the hideous Chinese dive (the one where the pigeons wander freely in and out the open door) on the west side of Mission, between 17th and 18th, was being offered for lease. Couple weeks ago, it had a sign about a new liquor license. Now I get an official notification in the mail about its imminent transformation into something called Southpaw BBQ, an On Sale General Brew Pub (here’s an online confirmation… and another). Sounds good to me!
Sounds good to me too! Thanks, COMG!
Which has less healing value than Tea Tree. In fact, if you drank this Valencia Street original blend you may need some Tea Tree Oil to kill off some of the bacteria.
