Friday, May 10th, 2013Stolen iPhone Spot Market – Meet the Gentlemen Who Fenced Your Apple Device – Mid-Market, SF, USA
Tuesday, February 26th, 2013Hanging out at 7th and Market in front of the check-cashing place in the heart of San Francisco’s corrupt Twitterloin / “Uptown” Tenderloin.

Now I’ll tell you, there will come a time when fencing an iPhone will become less lucrative. You know, the way it’s becoming in New York City. (Right? ‘Cause if you all can’t actually use the iPhone you just bought off of craigslist for cheap, then you all will stop buying them and that will be the end of the bulk of the stolen iPhone market.)
If only SFGov and the SFPD were so “innovative.”
But remember, appointed Mayor “Ed Lee Get’s It Done,” unless he doesn’t, as in this case.
And so many others

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012Two women with tickets for the theatre did not take kindly to the 20th anniversary ride of Critical Mass last Friday night.
They did manage to rescue an SUV, but that’s the extent of their accomplishments.
Here it is, like a candle in the wind, a woman with a road flare in the Tenderloin:

Construction Time Again: Giant Yellow Komatsu Backhoe vs. Defunct Building in the Corrupt Twitterloin – Guess Who Wins
Wednesday, September 12th, 2012So who’s profiting from this scene on Golden Gate Avenue? I don’t know, could it be Willie Brown or Rose Pak or Randy Shaw or some corrupt non-profit?
Something like that, I suspect. But I don’t know the deets.
Nevertheless, a clear victory for Komatsu:
All right, well, I just dug up some deets.

But, upon further review, it looks like we’re going from this:

Can you recall last year when Mayor Ed Lie had his campaign HQ in the Mid-Market to prove some point about something?
It looked like this:
Can you match up the photos?
What did Ed Lee Gets It Done actually get done here?
Oh, and our previous mayor also had a political HQ in this area not too long ago.
Check it:
“Prospective Twitter Landlord Gave Newsom Rent Deal“
On it goes in San Francisco’s corrupt Twitterloin.
Anyway, sorry Euros.

When will it close?
Well, considering its location in the Mid-Market, I’ll bet on 2013.
But, Prove Me Wrong, Children
Prove Me Wrong.
