Mission Mission

Reader kati jackson spotted this announcement near 23rd and San Bruno. I hope this makes someone’s day. Someone that is missing a series of crocheted squares for their afghan.

Thanks, kati!

SFPD has released new specifics on the vehicle alleged to have mowed down a father-son cycling team on Valencia a while back. Says one of the victims:

Aaron Mayfield-Sunshine mentioned something about this in the comments of another post, so we asked for more details. Here they are:

going around the cool kid community is some totally gnarly flu- it could be swine flu, or kangaroo flu or regular flu, who knows. ground zero was a bridez show at el rincon, we think, because everyone was sneaking alcohol in, and sharing drinks and getting sloppy, and so who knows how many flu bugs jumped from person to person. The upshot is anyone who wants to avoid being sick needs to avoid cool kids and there events for at least another week while the virus burns out.

Heard that? Stay away from cool kids! Thanks, Aaron!

Our buddy Elizabeth Sullivan is vexed:

Our good buddy Alexandra asked, and our good buddy Mike answered, “Michael-adas.”

We discussed and decided it’s just a michelada, but it must be consumed while wearing one glove.

Allison says:

Our UPS man, Bill, was crying on the sidewalk over Michael Jackson’s death. It’s a sad day on Capp Street.

We’d like to congratulate the Mission on winning “Best Neighborhood to Call Home” in SF Weekly‘s Best of San Francisco Readers’ Poll.

Dolores Park View was dazzled along with other attendees at a planning meeting at which final(ish?) designs were revealed. Important things to note: “Super Slide” and “natural boulders.” Wicked! Check it all out here.
