Interview: All About Eve

Name: Eve Batey

Age and Occupation: 33, PR

How long have you lived in the Bay Area and Where?
Fell in love with SF and got a school to admit and give me money in '97. I've lived in the Mission (very briefly), the Western Addition, and the Richmond, and am presently 4 blocks from the beach in the Sunset. I can't imagine ever living anywhere but here.

Favorite website:
SFist, and Television Without Pity.

Favorite local business:
Lehr's German Specialties on Church Street, Okaza Ya Judah sushi.

What I'm currently Reading:
This Is Your Life, by John O'Farrell.

SF has the BEST:
Ass.

You've never lived in SF until:
Your computer tells you that there are four other wireless networks in your area, and they all have names like "SuperFudgePacker" and "MenstrualGoddess5196"

Favorite Bay area politician of past or present:
Harvey Milk.

Best solicitation from a pan handler:
Him: "Are you homeless?" Me: "No, I am not." Him: "Well, you look it."

You can tell someone is local here IF:
You see them cringing at the sight of any fanny-pack.

SF would be soooo much better if only:
We had a better mainstream newspaper. It's such a cliche, but the Chron blows.

Best Burrito in the City:
Not technically in the city, but I love Los Compadres in South City. Also try the enchiladas - the sauce is magically delicious.

Best movie scene filmed in or about SF:
Michael Douglas and Sean Penn having that loud argument in front of the Green Door Massage Parlor in The Game. At the end of it, he just leaves his car there! That's not a parking space, Michael Douglas! Call a tow truck, at least!

I want all the SFists out there to know:
We are the luckiest sons-of-bitches ever, because we get to live in the greatest city in the world.
