Have you seen the Sunday NYT? It features San Francisco’s very own Supervisor Scott Wiener.
Check it and note the closeted Republican theme.
All right, babe, try to pose like Abraham Lincoln – that’s it, sober, sober, c’mon give me a lot more sober, that’s it, hold it, hold it, CLICK:

Oh what’s that, Gentle Reader? You’ve been to City Hall and you know for a fact that the wood inside the big chambers up on the second floor doesn’t actually glow IRL.? All right, well let’s tone that down, thusly:
How about a Lincoln hat? Here you go:
Now we’re going to lose the hat but go full desaturated. I think we’ve reached endgame:

Just another manic-depressive Monday, on 7th street, just north of Market.
Look at me, look at my horse head:

One-sixth of a second later:
The former Mayor’s solution to this problem was to hire a campaign worker to start a campaign about Something-Connect. Then the former Mayor had sex with the campaign worker’s wife. Things didn’t work out.
Anyway, this is what a cry for help looks like.

Look at dude in Civic Center.
His hat isn’t necessarily Russian, but that red star atop oak clusters means something, right Komrade?
I dub him Sky Admiral Krul:

And the funny thing was that it was a pretty nice day, rather warm, in fact…

OMG, it’s SMURFS WEEK in San Francisco, just like they had in NYC.
Hurray!
So, even though we might not have a blue* Mayor…
…we do have a blue City Hall. IRL, SRSLY, this is what City Hall, the Highest Classical Dome in the Western Hemisphere,** looks like at night these days:

And here’s an effort from Do Not Lick, who asks, “How Broke is San Francisco?”
As they, say, Smurf Happens:
San Francisco City Hall Goes Blue in Honor of The Smurfs

Hurray!
Thanks Sony!
*Or sunburned, take your pick. This photo, which is sometimes used to show people what Ed Lee looks like, is way, way, way, way oversaturated. Kind of “gristly,” don’t you think?
I would show you a one-click fix but I am ignorant of how to do such a thing. PhotoShop’s Replace Color on a sunburned area would be a start…
Oh, wait a sec, here we go:
That’s better, anyway…
**That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
“Its dome, which owes much to Mansart‘s Baroque dome of Les Invalides, Paris, is the fifth largest dome in the world, rising 307.5 ft (93.7 m) above the Civic Center Historic District. It is 14 in (360 mm) higher than the United States Capitol“

I don’t know, if this ad had been laid out ever so slightly differently, the four metal studs on the back of this MUNI bus would be aligned so as not to detract from The Message:

Of course, nothing beats Robo-Chauffeur from Emirates Airline. Sometimes his light would start blinking. Good times:

I’ll tell you, my rabbit ears (avec free govmint digital cable converter box) couldn’t even dream of picking up the KNTV from all the way down in San Bruno or wherever, so I never see the Channel 3.
But lots of you do, apparently, based upon all the recent fuss about newly-installed meteorologist Christina Loren.
Per Jane B:
“I enjoy the NBC news in the morning, but as soon as that bulging self-promoting common tart of a meteorologist appears with her forced Good Morning, I just can’t wait to change channels for the duration. I would have thought NBC would have been more concerned with professionalism in their meteorologists than with this very poor image that it presents daily. And then to add insult to injury, she turns up this a.m. with a hat, supposedly, I suppose, to be in the spirit of the royal wedding – what an insult!”
Exhibit A, the “insulting” hat in question:

Now, with an opposing viewpoint, here’s the wedding hat minority report from Christina’s FaceBook fans:
O.K. then.
Comes now Rich Lieberman, who’s not infatuated with “The Hottest Weather Woman On The Planet,” not in the least, why would you even think that, to post an interview with CL, who ably strives to stay AOM, Always On Message, about being AAMF, All About My Forecast. See?
All right, it’s time to sign off with all the banal slogans used by KNTV over the recent decades:
- Look to 11 (1972-circa 1975)
- We`re The One Can Turn To, Channel 11 (1978-1979; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- You and Me and Channel 11 (1980-1981; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- Now is The Time, Channel 11 is The Place (1981-1982; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- Come on Along with Channel 11 (1982-1983; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- That Special Feeling on Channel 11 (1983-1984; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- We’re With You, on 11 with You (1984–1985; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- You’ll Love It on Channel 11/You’ll Love It, KNTV (1985–1986; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- Together on Channel 11 (1986–1987; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- The San Jose NewsChannel (1987–1998)
- The Bay Area`s Watching Channel 11 (1990-19??; localized version of ABC ad campaign)
- If It`s The Bay Area, It Must Be Channel 11 (1992-1993; localized version of “It Must Be ABC” campaign)
- The South Bay’s News Leader (1998–2000)
- The Fastest Growing News Station in Northern California (2000–2001; still used occasionally)
- The Bay Area’s NBC11 / The Bay Area’s Leading News Station (2001–2008)
- Proud To Call The Bay Area Home (2008-early 2010)
- Locals Only (2008–present; secondary slogan)
- Learn, Think, Act, Live (early 2010-September 12, 2010; primary news slogan)
- Reporting What Matters to You (September 1, 2010–present; primary news slogan)
- Every Day is Full of Color (September 13, 2010–present; general slogan)
TTFN!
