Nr. Young

An inordinate amount of time on public transit over the past couple of weeks has led me to conclude that we might as well just go ahead and add "nigga" to the list of accepted honorifics, along with Mr., Ms., Mrs., Dr. etc. I shall hereby accept Nr. Young as an expression of cultural awareness and sensitivity until further notice.

Willie Brown's Bridge

I am happy to share that in spite of the usual pattern of inconsiderate drivers encountered during my morning an evening commute to and from San Francisco, driving under the new gleaming white tower and suspension section of the Bay Bridge is always an uplifting experience.

Beauty matters.
