So busy that I haven’t had a chance to post all of the wonderful interweb gems (that you’ve already seen) floating around…
When I saw the potential of this posting a few weeks ago, I cringed inwardly. Quitting publicly in a hailstorm of flames is one of those ideas that sounds great when you’re drunk…but usually backfires in your face down the road. But this lady – I’ve got no doubts she’ll get another job to go along with her vindication.

…oh yes you are.
Posted today at Nova restaurant in San Francisco. They’ve gone and stomped on Sanctimony. Good for them.

On a scale from Very Trustworthy to Disastrous…here’s what your hirsute face says about you.
I love that John Waters is between Werewolf and Hitler.
I can’t find the link where I got this from…I’ll keep looking…
Update: Found it!
I’m pretty sure this band is covering some other band in some Tri-State area this weekend.
Weeding through my “Random Stuff” files….
is it a keeper?
NextRound has collected their favorite 15 Venn Diagrams as of late. (They claim that these explain the internet…sure…but they don’t at all.) Here’s a few of my favorites from their list:

I’m sitting at Starbucks in Downtown. There is an older guy working here who is making these really awkward dance moves to the 40s/50s music they are playing. Everyone is kind of hiding behind their newspaper or their cup of coffee trying to not have eye contact with him while he is having a (bit too much of a) good time dancing around. Just moments ago I didn’t pay attention avoiding him, I looked up, our eyes met …and his energy increased by 300%. He launched into a full blown disco dance. After seconds of total ecstasy he froze in total shock and pain, one hand on his back. Not a move. He pinched a nerve!
I don’t know if my description illustrates really how funny that moment was. I mean, cruel. But just too funny.Now he’s walking around the store, one hand rubbing his back, the other one playing air guitar. I’m not kidding.
Meetup.com is GREAT.
I’m moving to San Francisco and spent the afternoon meandering through all the SF meetup groups – it’s the most entertaining form of an anthropological dig.
There’s a Northern California Vampires Meetup group (162 Vampires!)…the San Francisco Ex-New Yorkers Group….The Eckhart Tolle Silent Local Group (you have got to be lonely if you’re meeting up with people to be quiet)…Fried Chicken Sluts….Starting Over Without Him…The Jewish Response To The Clean Energy Challenge…Boggle – for people who like to play Boggle, but stipulates that “anyone of any age is welcome, except serial killers and birthers”….Swing Goth (as in Goths who like to swing dance)…Bay Area Cold Fusion User group….Bay Area Social Anxiety Disorder Meetup group (wha? How do they even get together?)…Intentional Love Making Circles (if that’s not a sex group then that’s an unfortunate name)….Wittgenstein and Nietzsche Discussion Group (I’m sure this is what the developers of the www thought it was going to be like)…the San Francisco lonely empty nesters club (such a catchy name, but only 2 members)…and then there’s Fun Times San Francisco for “female (and female-identifying) only.”
Plus 2,000 other groups.
