This is the sidewalk of Sansome betwixt Pine and California near our tony Mandarin Oriental Hotel.
The vent you see on the right regularly overflows with stinky raw sewage.
Why does that happen?

And stuff that looks like toilet paper, is toilet paper, Gentle Reader.
And this is the same thing on Clayton near the 94117 Post Office:
But in this location, this condition doesn’t seem to be a regular thing.
The problem near the corner of California and Sansome near the new CVS in the Financh is ongoing.
It’s chronic.
Oh well.

Sure looks, smells that way.
Anyway, somebody dumped big piles of poo like this one near the Panhandle bike path on Friday and then took the weekend off.
Even today, people in the NoPA be checking their shoes as if they stepped in the present left by pooch of San Francisco’s selfish, self-centered owner/guardians.
Oh well.
Someday this mulch will get to where it belongs and things will get back to normal.
And then, after that, RPD will put some drainage into the Panhandle so it’s not swampy six months of the year.
Someday.

Some of this is probably tree sap, BTW:

The Lower Market Christmas Snowflake Lights are officially on through January. Apparently, it was just practice when these lights were on for weeks last summer. As they looked last night, click to expand:
The holidays will be a good time for San Francisco’s illegal taxi trade. See this white Lincoln Town Car? The driver will take you back to your hotel for just $50. Of course a taxi would be cheaper, but where are you going to get a taxi on a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday night in San Francisco? The City wants people to patiently wait their turns, but our rich tourists don’t like that arrangement. Oh well.
Here’s part of your Mid Market crackdown. The people in the Ford Crown Victoria being stopped by the SFPD are NOT cops. The two in the car were suspects for a brief time last night. Both of them are currently on probation, but that’s not a crime, right? They must not have done anything all that wrong ’cause they were released after a two- minute detention by the SFPD. Hurray!
And there are fewer cars on Market Street between Sixth and Fifth Streets, but more poo, apparently. Yes, that’s what you think it is, from yesterday, right on the traffic-free inbound slow lane of the “Champ Elysees of the Western Hemisphere.” Oh well.
This concludes Your Market Street Update.

San Francisco’s 59th Annual Juneteenth Celebration went off without a hitch. See what it looked like here on SFGate.
Juneteenth Parade
June 20, 2009
Location: start @ Hamilton Park on Post Street
Juneteenth Festival Celebration
June 20-21, 2009
Location: Civic Center Plaza
Click to expand:
Confetti everywhere during the parade in front of City Hall:
If that San Francisco District 5 Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi in there?
Yes it is, with his Bianchi Milano cafe racer bicycle
Here’s Chris Jackson of the San Francisco Community College Board
And Public Defender Jeff Adachi
1964 300K Letter Series Chrysler. That thing got a Hemi? Sadly no, how about a Wedge instead?
All Corvettes are Red, except those that aren’t
Barack Obama was there, sort of.
As was the Census Bureau
And the kids from UCSF Division of Clinical Pharmacology were looking for healthy smokers, something like this: Pharmacogenetics of Nicotine Metabolism in African-Americans. Make $300 by joining the study, why don’t you?
And if meat is murder, then Civic Center was the site of a massacre this weekend
See you next year!

This was the scene today on Post Street, home to the RV lifestyle as well as Japantown.
Can you see the horsies? Everybody likes horsies.

Something to do with the Juneteenth Festival Parade, or something.
At the end, all you could see were the “leavings”
But DPW should have that swept away soon enough.
See you next year.

The gigantic Great Blue Herons high atop Stow Lake in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park usually want to stick around their one-hundred pound nests, so sometimes this is how they go to the loo.
Most of it makes it out of the nest, anyway.
Click to expand, go ahead, do it.
Yet another “pretty picture,” per ”Don’t Call Him Crazy” Rob Anderson.

This sign, sighted near in the Civic Center near Opera Plaza in San Francisco, cites an actual provision of the Health Code but it doesn’t look like it was posted by the City or County. Seems like somebody has a personal campaign to get the word out. How civic minded!
SEC. 40. DOG TO BE CONTROLLED SO AS NOT TO COMMIT NUISANCES.
(a) It shall be unlawful for any person owning or having control or custody of any dog to permit the animal to defecate upon the public property of this City or upon the private property of another unless the person immediately remove the feces and properly dispose of it; provided, however, that nothing herein contained authorizes such person to enter upon the private property of another without permission.
(b) It shall be unlawful for any person to walk a dog on public property of this City or upon the private property of another without carrying at all times a suitable container or other suitable instrument for the removal and disposal of dog feces.
(c) Visually handicapped persons who use Seeing Eye Guide Dogs are exempt from this law.
(Amended by Ord. 420-78, App. 9/8/78)
