i watched the first 20-25 minutes or so on that live stream but it died around then. my add got the best of me and i went on to something else. the slides and talking points were good. i was happy to see all the facts about spending on things that matter to me as a resident and property owner, streets, parks, etc. it made me start to wonder what happened in the previous administration that they ignored so many things we all count on every day. then i remembered willie brown was our mayor before gavin. what a disaster. that tim redmond poke made my day. what an ass clown!

PLUSES: 1. Content, delivery 2. No rainbow flag on the podium MINUSES: 1. The "new tie" appears to be from the mid-90's 2. Didn't call out Lumpy the Loser from the stage

PLUSES [per the photos]: 1. He got a haircut, thereby going "green" by saving on chemicaly poisoned hair-gel. 2. He bought a new tie. 3. He correctly used a semi-colon on the HQ slide. MINUSES: 1. There were empty seats. 2. No rainbow flag on the podium.

Don't think you were the only one to notice that Tim Redmond from SFBG posted his own take on the State of the City speech. It's just too bad he pulled the post. Otherwise we could all have a laugh about how he accidentally reviewed the 2006 State of the City speech by mistake. Oh wait!: http://www.sfbg.com/blogs/politics/2007/10/mayor_pothole.html

The first link was for the live stream. That's dead now. The finished video will go on the second page. It is being captioned right now, then has to be compressed. So it will be shown at 7pm tonight on Channel 26, but the online archive won't be published by the Granicus server until... 10am?, 11am? tomorrow.
