SFist Interviews: John Ortved, Author of The Simpsons: An Uncensored, Unauthorized History
Sunnyside, famous for its collapsing houses, falling trees, naughty neighbors, and proximity to Daly City, was the site of an explosion that rocked the hood at around 7:45 Monday night. The explosion happened in the garage of 108 Congo, which four young brothers who "fix cars" (according to a neighbor) called home. Several other people share the rest of the house. While there are some residents still in the hospital, no life-threatening injuries have been reported. If you're in the area, go say hi to SFist favorite, Claudine Wong. (She's wearing leather today.)
Update I: According to an anonmyous source, who tried to walk down Congo when it was closed street just after the explosion, an SFPD officer approached and said, "No, sorry it's closed; It's a crime scene."
Update II: Three people who were inside the house at the time of the explosion are still in the hospital. House is "leaning" now, looking like it could collapse.

What a scene last night ...we thought it might have been an earthquake or a giant big rig collision on 280 ...
Congo Street remains closed and the scene is "under invedstigation" . . .
could this have anything to do with the police helicopter that was hovering over glen park canyon last night at about 10 pm?
"Fix cars"= "I lost my house to meth."
@ Aventinus Totally. I was wondering if anyone would get that . . .
Claudine Wong in leather?? Oooooohhhhhh
I live directly across the street from this house. Here are some pics from last night:

Explosion happened at about 7:45 PM A loud BOOM jolted the entire house and there was the sound of glass breaking. 5 guys stumbled out of the ruble of the house, all dazed and screaming about being in pain.
The back window of my car shattered from the blast.
We were told to evacuate at appx. 10:00
So what else besides meth labs can make houses explode these days?
