So why not take the $750K that MUNI or the SFMTA or the Central Subway has granted you and spend it on animals, like donate it to a shelter for abused dogs or something?
That would serve to make your apologies more real.
And then you could put this issue to bed and then you could more easily get contracts in the future.
So why not take part of the $170k+ per year pay package you cost BART and use it to reimburse the $872 you had billed to the taxpayers for those two SUVs that nobody even used?
Wouldn’t that be fair?
Hurray!
*If not, you should be, right? You make a lot of money, considering, right?
“Ever since Beth and I met, we’ve talked about doing a joint project. Well, years later, here’s the first episode of our newest endeavor: Necessary Conversation. Anyway, we’ll be putting out one of these a week. Hope you like it! (Oh, and we’ll have a dedicated NC website as soon as I figure out how to transfer the files.)”

Look for the Big Board – it sets out positions on the issues of the day in black and white. You Can’t Hide From The Big Board:
And KOFY TV 20 is there doing something or other – they’re Everywhere You Want To Be these days. (Perhaps KOFY’s recent affiliation with noted WikipedianBeth Spotswood is starting to pay off…)
Hundreds of well-wishers tried to pack into the place – it was truly San Francisco’s Affair of the Decade of the Aughts.
Here are just a few…
…of Beth’s supporters.
This was as close as I could get to the program next door due to the standing-room-only crowd. Emcee Melissa Griffinintroduced the always-dapper, besuited Senator Mark Leno, who presented an official certificate to Beth:
And here’s Beth in action, doing spoken word in front of a brick wall.
