A strange, exotic and slightly dangerous place

2006-10-21T19:20:09Z

It was morning. It was the weekend. I needed pan dulce. And as anyone knows, if you live in San Francisco and want authentic Mexican anything, you need to go the The Mission District -- a place you only go during daylight and in groups of 20 or m...

Flying

2006-09-23T14:14:24Z

I started taking flying lessons this week. Being in the Bay Area, a little extra care was in order to choose a place to learn that didn't have me dodging jets half the time. I did some research on flight schools, emailed a pilot I used to work wit...

Hey, loud cellphone guy

2006-09-18T00:53:34Z

Why is it when people talk on their cell phones in public places, they feel as though they are sitting in their own sound proof living room? This guy was sitting next to me at the Las Vegas airport the other day. I was tired, on my way home from a...

WILL THE PERSON WHO MISPLACED THEIR HEARING AID BATTERIES PLEASE...

2006-08-24T00:05:29Z

I'm standing in the Orange County airport this afternoon waiting for my flight home when I hear over the PA system, "Will the passenger who left their hearing aid batteries please return to the security checkpoint." Wonder how that turned out.

QotD: My First Car

2006-08-20T16:56:16Z

Tell us a little something about your first car. Do you have any photos you can share? Submitted by tamara. Oh man, I wish I had a picture. It was a green 1974 Ford Pinto. It's apparent to me now that my parent's were trying to get rid of me.

BART, Midnight and Rasta-dude

2006-08-06T05:08:41Z

I was at a going away party for a co-worker last night. It went fairly late and by the time I got my somewhat inebriated self to a BART station, it was midnight. I have never taken BART after midnight. I had visions of empty cars with just me and ...
