Thursday, October 13th, 2011What needs to happen for the 16-year Willie Brown administration to end is to have three name-brand challengers get together and say:

Buick Regal vs. 101 North Median at Oyster Point After Short Chase – What’s in the Trunk?
Thursday, May 13th, 2010Intern* Contributor Exploited Lackey “Wonder Mike” Sanchez sends in this shot of the aftermath of a crazy car chase on 101 North near Oyster Point during yesterday’s evening rush through South San Francisco.

Oh well.
*Calling an unpaid worker an “intern” is a good way for somewhat naive Pajama Editors to get in hot water with the Department of Labor. Sooner or later.

SUV-Driving Obama Supporter Gets the Boot in San Francisco
Monday, April 14th, 2008The phrase getting the boot can mean a few different things. In San Francisco, the primary definition relates to your car getting a big yellow Denver Boot.

In defence of the operator of this vehicle, Obamamania has infected the entire Bay Area, so paying those pesky and expensive $50 parking tickets issued by DPT (or MTA or whatever they call themselves this month) might seem to many like a chore worth putting off.
Also while it’s true this vehicle was made in merrie olde Englande, it has a Buick engine (mas o menos) and maybe even a Chrysler transmission, so factor that in before you start the hatin’.
And, what looks like red paint on the curb is actually indicates a “pink zone” where some people park without fear of getting ticketed. Take a look at the very same curb here on MapJack. See? The red zone starts at the stop sign, don’t you think?
So, things aren’t as bad as they seem in this photo. Let’s have a little sympathy for this youthful supporter of the next president(?) of the United States!
