SFGov Haunted by Ghost of Ma

fma.png
You thought she was gone, but no: Fiona Ma is still coming to us from beyond the grave! Or Sacramento or wherever she is now.

Despite having left the Board of Soups back in January, Ms. Ma's official SFGov webpage lingers on, like your one friend from back home who kept hanging out at the high school after graduating. But you'd never guess, from looking at it, that's she's moved on; it's the first hit when you Google "Fiona Ma," and it even says that she's still serving on her old boards and commissions. A vague "term ends 2007" is the only clue.

Sadly, many of the links on the page are broken, so her ancestral internet-home has apparently not been very well kept-up since her departure. But as so many District 4 supervisors have discovered, maintaining a property is nearly impossible when you don't actually live there.

I'm sure she's just waiting for Ed Jew to complete his move to SF (probably waiting for the cable guy as we speak) before she officially severs all her ties with District 4. ;)

 

D4 folks mourn the loss of former Supervisor Ma; not just that she isn't their rep anymore, but that... well, you know...


 

Is she dead? Or is this out-of-towner just confused?

 

It's 4 pm on August 1st. San Francisco, do you know where your supervisors are? (cue scary music)

 

that photo looks like something from the lost and found, circa 1985..

holy nightmares batman!

No, she's not dead(!) She's a California Assemblymember, representing the 12th District in Sacramento, California's capital city.

Are you referring to me or to yourself as the out-of-towner? Unsure of the precedent.

My point is that D4 folks really liked Fiona as their district supe, and now they feel that they have no representation on the BOS, pretty much.
