This VHS tape has been languishing in the landing of my building for nearly a week, looking for a new home. Any takers? Apparently Howard Stern’s Private Parts have lost their appeal, if they ever had any…

Private Parts for the taking…
Kook Both Ways
Is this an example of the city’s attempts to keep its Yiddish-speaking citizens safe when they cross the street (“Kook” is Yiddish for “Look,” the usual word spray-painted in SF crosswalks)…or a graffiti artist’s commentary on the eccentricity of San Francisco’s citizenry?
Seen on Folsom St. in the Mission.

Gandhi, Defaced
Seen in Wiese Alley in the Mission District of San Francisco. Not sure if the vandal doesn’t like Gamdhi, or just wanted a place to tag.

Payphone: Free Call to God
Seen on a pay phone at the CalTrain station in San Francisco: Apparently you can now call God (or a bank) for free. There were too many drunk Giants fans swarming the station, so I didn’t stick around and make a toll-free call to God…but if anyone else has gotten through to the Divine on this pay phone, I’d love to hear how your call went!

Shoes over the Armory
A pair of shoes strung over a wire above the old Armory building in the Mission (now home to kink.com studios), with a San Francisco flag waving in the background. I’m not sure whose idea it was to throw the first pair of shoes over a high wire, but it now seems to be a trend, of sorts. Urban art, perhaps? Not sure if this qualifies, but I thought it was worth posting.

Construction Site on Market Street
This gaping hole has sat untouched for quite some time now, and the light was just right this afternoon to take its picture.
Tenth & Market in San Francisco. Catholic church on Folsom in the background.
