Our horrible SFMTA, a national laughingstock ala our similarly-horrible PG&E, let this Interceptor fall into private hands and just look what happened to it:

Actually, it’s for sale.
Just $5000!
Srsly.
Last seen on Fulton in what the pilot of this ride would almost certainly call the NoPA area.
Look for it there if you want to add this golf cart to your life.
Well here it is, straight from the horse’s mouth:
“Our zero tolerance for quality of life violations is continuing. We are recovering many misappropriated shopping carts.”
So that’s why the SFPD’s Park Station spent half a day taking shopping carts away from homeless people
Check it, the log from January 29th, 2013:

Per commenter bd3517:
“According to the 1/24/13 Park Station Newsletter, in that week they recovered 11 shopping carts, describing it as misappropriation of property. An example entry from the report:‘Officer Diskin recovered a misappropriated shopping cart and admonished the culprit who had misappropriated it.’”
This is what it looks like.

Park Station didn’t confiscate shopping carts like this before.
I wonder what led to this policy…

Dude was saying how it was better that he didn’t have some kind of permit, else all of his stuff would gave been taken away instead of just his cart.
That’s how it works in the SFPD’s Park Police District, San Francisco, USA.
You’re invited to come to Civic Center tonight to see Game Four of the World Series on a makeshift “Jumbotron.”
See you at 5:07 PM (or earlier, to get a good spot if you want to be able to actually see the action unobstructed.)
It’ll look like this, but probably with more Matt Cain than Timothy Leroy Lincecum on the screen:

The SFPD requests (more or less) that you transfer your alcohol to unmarked containers, thusly:
And, oh yes, speaking of the Rec and Park, Remember to Vote No on Proposition B (November 2012), the so-called “Clean and Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond”
Why?
Well, because Prop. B is too costly for San Francisco
And also because Reform is Needed at San Francisco’s Recreation and Parks Department.
Also because area lawyer Philip Alan Ginsburg would consider passage of Prop B (November 2012) an endorsement of how he’s running the RPD.
That’s why.
Now, let’s hear from San Francisco Mayor Ron Conway,* after the jump. (Spoiler: He wants you to go to Chipotle’s and spend your money before you blow town.)
PS: The after party will be in the Mission District – spread the word, bring fireworks.
*Poor Sony. It appears that any television-like contraption bigger than 100 inches now gets the generic term “jumbotron.”
Oh well.
“Displays similar to the Jumbotron include:
Bad News: It’s all in pieces in a shopping cart driven by a man with all sorts of tools at hand.

That’s how it goes on the Mean Streets of San Francisco, the innovation capital of the world, or something.
Never seen a Yamaha generator before.
What, it costs $1000 for one of these things? (In that case, I think I’d secure it with a bike chain on the mean Streets of San Francisco…)
Chugga, Chugga, Chugga, Chugga, Chugga, Chugga…
Somebody get this man an AC hook-up, stat.
Did a Rec and Park cart get stuck in the middle of the Panhandle again? Sure looks that way from this photo, ’cause as we learned from My Cousin Vinny, tire tracks don’t lie.
Instead of working on aesthetics all the time, why doesn’t the PRD work on tasks they’re supposed to work on, like drainage ‘n stuff?
Just asking, bro.
Well Giants fans have flocked to Civic Center this evening to watch Game 5 on the big screen.
San Francisco Police, Deputy Sheriffs, Park Rangers and the CHP were all on hand to make sure things didn’t get out of hand. They did this by making people pour out their beers.
“Tuck Fexas” and “Texas Sucks Cocks” were typical sentiments, it appeared
Here was how things looked early on:

And a little later, when they turned on the orange lights of City Hall:
And here’s the scene later on when the Giants led 3-1:
