Dear Miss Fenty...

...My name is Tigger Niglet, and I live down the road from Christopher "31 Flavors" Baskin-Robin in Storybrook, California, near the Mendocino Mountains (Surely you know of local archvillainess Clara Bell, often joked about stupidly by your fellow New Yorker Kristen Wiig? But I digress...)

I beg for things as cleverly as possible, and always have paper towels in hand with my glass cleaning spray whenever I occasion to jump on a motherfucker's windshield, but I've never been successful enough to afford your shoes -- not even in jest!

But if I could, I'd like to ask you for a pair of size 8 1/2 men's hightops, in red vermillion lacquer (maybe bits of black showing through, Japanese-style?); with Imperial Yellow soles, laces and inners? I would rock them at least twice a week for years!

I think about Mikey a lot. I think about... What if he was horribly disfigured by burn scars, like the Marine mechanics who survived that serious accidental ordnance explosion or whatever on the tarmac at Travis a few months ago? I know I'd still want him, no matter what (yes, physically...) 

707 USMC Mikey, where art thou??? Waaah...

[DECISIVELY]: "Get Jason Bourne -- at once!"

ANALYST [INSTANTLY CRINGING]: "Um, ma'am, then maybe you shouldn't have initiated exclusionary protocols... Are you really sure you want to go crawling on your hands and knees to Mr. Bourne now? After all that?"

(Honestly, Leah, Jo, et alia: what the fuck do those movies *do* with Joan Allen, anyway?)

San Franciscans and guests of San Francisco who will be in the City: several tours seem to be scheduled for visitors to tour Salesforce Tower. This one is sold out (still points to a waiting list), but check around for others, or make your own not-exactly-#disrupty attempts at meandering through it. At 326 meters tall, it's a pretty notable new landmark, and who knows? In any sort of collapse event, it might be one of America's new Towers of David! Exciting, to muse on the post-apocalyptic, n'est pas?

"I SWEAR BY THE [UNINTELLIGIBLE] -- SWEAR [GRUMBLE]" Hey, it ain't Richard III. Try doing Charles II instead - but you better hurry, before he goes out the window!

Today is Sunday, and I may yet prevail upon my soon-to-be-dearly-departed-so-I-had-better-spoil-her mother to lend me the car that I may attend (Methodist? I think so...) services at the local community church -- just to be a sport, ya dig?

(Please join me in gassho, and... Namo Amida Butsu!)

Lovely San Francisco

Ah... But now it's raining. Back to Vallejo, then Stonyford today...

As always, donations proudly accepted at the paypal, gofundme, and venmo account links to the right...

It's Been Three Years...

...Had I gotten a lawyer, I probably would have seen the inside of a courtroom right about... Now, considering the perennial judge shortage and the dockets for civil court cases - not to diminish the criminality of my previous landlord...

And I'm not even going to the City for this reason. And I'm writing to a politician, of all people... But why shouldn't I?

Memories of 212

Frankie H would have hated this done in Chakotey's voice...

Don't let this brief Indian Summer fool you: now is the time to help out where possible - several people die of exposure just in Northern California every winter...

St. Anthony's
Hospitality House
Glide
Salvation Army
Walden House

These are five agencies in San Francisco alone I've given to in the past. There are others who desperately need your assistance in Sacramento, Redding, Napa and elsewhere if you can...

Anyone for a national referendum in which we vote whether or not to "quarantine" Betty Price?

SOOPER IMPORTANT ALERT!!! Watch out for a relatively new postal scam, in which your mail is forwarded without your knowledge... Perps, when caught, still get the obligatory five years in the penitentiary, IIRC...

Tech Tuesdays, October 24, there's a bunch of helpful information on getting your rear in gear with regards to the new normal of the Internet. Save the date!

./=v_^_v=\.

Plus.google.com/+WilliamWay has an adult entertainment portal that has received warnings, and to Google I have appealed... Nevertheless, I do not directly feature pornography; rather, I showcase links to pornography and entertainment that is to be used by adults as a masturbatory or sexual aid... Get it while it's hot! (The latest, Joe Schmoe Videos, is too good to pass up!)

Whence the various elements?

Best of luck to Julia Louis-Dreyfus on her second bout of chemo!

Okay, A Couple More Pics From San Francisco (Sept. 30)

Downtown, Salesforce Tower (formerly Transbay Tower) in the background. (I saw Mark Zuckerberg himself right around the time I took this shot - about 2 or 3 AM!)

The hidden machinery that runs the cable cars from under the street!

.:UoOoU:.

Ohayou gozaimasu, errybody! (And special hellos to Bernie, Riley, and Mikey, the boy I want to marry.)

Ass-Crack O' Dawn

Early morning...

...And welcome to Stonyford, California, where I have lived since Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation immorally and illegally displaced me three years ago...

...This is the house I must share with my mother...

...Where I prepare food...

...And contribute to the community...

...Dream of a life, maybe in Alameda, with REDACTED, or picnics in the park...

...And smoke out, and just sit there and look pretty...

(Please help us improve our land...)
