I would never fly Delta again, it is this sub-trash piece of shit airlines. The flights were terrible.

On the second flight, the seats going back function was broken which really sucks on an overnight flight. Although there was a movie we were not able to see the screen due to the way the cabin was configured. They didn't even bother giving us earphone ports for the sound.

But here is the kicker. I was annoyed when we arrived in Atlanta at 5am for our 9:20am flight to buffalo. But what made that totally unacceptable is that there is a 7am flight to Buffalo. Why would they have not put us on that flight when I requested a ticket from San Francisco online. It just doesn't make sense. So I asked the stupid fuck behind the counter if we could switch and he said no.

(e:matthew) and I spent most of yesterday in the park. We walked from Buena Vista park down Haight street to the golden gate park to the ocean and all the way back.

How did graffitti get in the electric or phone box or whatever this is.


Here is the city view from twin peaks.


This is where (e:twisted) often visits estrip.


This flower in the park smelled so sweet. I want to know what it is.


A pretty twisted branch.


Another pic of flowers at golden gate park. The viewfinder in my camera makes purple look blue so I thought it was not taking pictures of purple/pink things properly but it is. Just that they show up blue in the viewfinder.

This pine cone was so large and heavy. It is hard to tell in the pic.


This tree trunk over water was almost the death of me. I ran across it and then got scared and sat down as it was high up over water. Then I had to shimmy the rest of the way.


When we got to the beach we ate yummy food.




A cubby hole in the woods. I thought (e:terry) would like it.


Next to Buena Vista Park is this house that resembles ours accept for theirs is smaller but has a grander entrance.

Well day one took us through the CSS you'd learn in intro to web design. Hopefully, something more exciting will be on the plate for tommorow. This woman in front of me asked the man next to her what a 'div' is.

It's nice to find out most of the choices (e:enknot) and I have made are also backed by other industry professionals.

The food was tasty. I even got my own personal size chocolate cake. Somehow a pigeon got into the conference. I fed it some cookies.




These dolls are so damn freaky.

"You don't want to develop a javascript framework. That hard work has already been solved by the really smart people."

Here are some of the pics from San Francisco in no particular order.

Okay, this one was before the trip. I finally cut off my hair. I feel free. There was a video of the process but unlike the old days of the smaller audience I think it is no longer appropriate.




there was this magazine on the plane with furniture in Nice, France that make syour whole house into a rock garden. I want it so bad.




(e:matthew) really did not like flying. The two hours of severe turbulence didn't help. I was liek the plane was going to rip apart. My neck hurt from the stress of thinking I was gonna die plus the jarring motion of it whipping around. We didn't even have service or sound for like 2 hours.




People bring their dogs and cats on planes in their backpacks nowadays. As an alergy sufferere this makes me mad.


I thought Dave Doyle would like this. I know he likes messed up signs.


This one too.




On Saturday (e:hodown) arrived


Here is the goldengate bridge


These boat houses cost more than double the cost of the mansion.







Alcatraz from telegraph hill.


Yummy Seafood














Lots of no dumping signs with junk in the grates.




At the conference today I was scared that an earthquake would crash down the part I was in.







A delorian maybe?


I love Aroma Tea Shop at 302 6th avenue






(e:hodown) already opened up a restaurant here.


Lombard street is twisty


Do you think the workers really get the $1 surcharge per plate? No where else had one.


From North of the bridge





This is the Palace of Fine Arts. I felt at home being a master of fine arts.


(e:twisted) had lots of yummy snacks for us.
