Day Around the Bay

Wait! Burning Man isn't till next week, and it's in Nevada, not the Fillmore. (Photo taken by Jake DeLosada, via Jim DeLosada, who tipped "This picture was taken by my son last Friday @ 5pm on Filmore and Geary.")

Today's guest blogger? Phil Bronstein. Oooohhhhh, is right. While almost every blogger in this city has an overinflated sense of their own internet celebrity status, Phil Bronstein is an actual star, not to mention a real journalist. Executive Vice President, Former Chronicle Editor, and now Editor At Large for Hearst Newspapers, he also writes Bronstein At Large.
