Keys to the city

Viral locksmith marketing hits the streets! Although this one’s location has slipped my mind, there’s another at 19th and Guerrero.

I wonder how one might actually embed something like this into the asphalt?

What exactly does one buy at a funeral home sidewalk sale?

Seriously, I’m asking. I saw the sign after it was already too late to attend:

Phone down

If you haven’t jumped on the cell phone bandwagon, now’s the time.

The pay phone at 22nd near Mission is finally dead.

The sports bar for people who hate sports bars

That’s the vibe bartender Rob will be going for this Sunday at Thieves Tavern. Here’s the plan:

Yo, so I don’t know what the food will be, but I’ll definitely have food. I’ll be open at 10am. $5 for a PBR and shot of either Jameson or Bulleit. $6 for a Manmosa: a pint of champagne with a shot of citron vodka and OJ. $6 spiciest bloodies this side of the Mississippi.

Say what!? All that plus football and a fridge full of Old Style and a tad bit of sunlight peeking through the front windows!

Vandals? Drunkards? A jealous ex?

Found on the bathroom wall of a secret pupuseria. So simple yet so shiny.

Jerkin documentary

Check out this short doc made by San Francisco teen/CEO of Jerkin crew Space Cadetsz, Tyre Brown. Jerkin is a new-ish dance style that’s quickly gaining popularity in the Bay Area. Tyre’s piece highlights his crew, as well as the Lady Cadetsz (their female counterparts) and M.C.S. (the younger group).

The movie was funded by PBS’s POV – Project VoiceScape and BAYCAT. I helped out on the editing and Troy Holden took the great stills that appear in the opening and closing credits. Vote for the movie on the PBS website and help Tyre win the 2011 Project VoiceScape Audience Award!
