If you thought <a href="http://sfist.com/2009/09/05/video_bay_bridge_construction_and_f.php">Captin_nod's time-lapse footage</a> of a portion of the Bay Bridge construction from last Friday evening was rad, check out this <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTM6Ux8Viak">intense footage</a> of the entire weekend gleaned from the <a href="http://baybridgeinfo.org/construction-cams">Bay Bridge Construction Webcam</a>. We agree with the YouTube commenter who said it needs "Yakety Sax" in the background though. <a href="http://odeo.com/episodes/23721660-14-yakety-sax-mp3-audio-mpeg-Object">So, here ya go.</a> <strong> Update:</strong> Thanks to boredpeon for the <a href="http://james.nerdiphythesoul.com/bennyhillifier/?id=HTM6Ux8Viak">sweet Benny Hillifier</a> heads-up!!</p>

Sarah Phelan of the Bay Guardian captured some great <a href="http://www.sfbg.com/blogs/politics/2009/09/bay_bridge_reopens_and_heres_t.html">footage of the newly opened Bay Bridge</a> this morning. You can see the new, surprise curve that <a href="http://sfist.com/2009/09/07/reopening_of_bay_bridge_delayed_at.php#comment-2332055">folks have been talking about today</a> at around 40 seconds into the video (just after the 35 MPH sign). Phelan mentions that there will probably be quite a bit of rubber-necking at that point of the bridge for a while. So, remember to take it slow! </p>

Much to our delight. Otherwise, one would never have spotted this totally awesome bit of graffiti, presumably scribbled on the on the side of the structure by Bay Bridge workers.</p>

<p>Follow the <i>Blowup</i>-esque gallery to find out what these workers wanted you to know.</p>

<p>And, who could they be referring to here? Caltrans inspector Mike Whiteside? A much-loathed bridge worker named "Mike" who has an affection for mammary glands? <a href="http://stopokaygo.typepad.com/web/images/2007/06/14/2490kirkcameron.jpg">Mike Seaver</a>? As Jim Herd at SFCitizen, who first spotted the offensive graffiti, <a href="http://sfcitizen.com/blog/2009/09/06/mike-sucks-big-titties-bay-bridge-has-more-cracks-offensive-graffiti-than-you-might-imagine">points out</a>, "Perhaps Mike Whiteside’s pals could spend their time looking for more cracks instead of engaging in these kinds of  monkeyshines?"</p>

<p><strong>Update</strong>: Bay Bridge Media Bar seems to have yanked the images from the site. Bah.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Video: Bay Bridge Construction and Full Moon Time Lapse]]></title><description><![CDATA[Captin_nod</a> put together this <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/captin_nod/3888765555/in/photostream/">mesmerizing video</a> featuring time-lapse photography of yesterday's ongoing Bay Bridge c...]]></description><link>https://sfist.com/2009/09/05/video_bay_bridge_construction_and_f/</link><guid isPermaLink="false">5c242b5f44ad066cdcf66c84</guid><category><![CDATA[misc]]></category><category><![CDATA[bay_bridge]]></category><category><![CDATA[bay_bridge_expansion]]></category><category><![CDATA[photography]]></category><category><![CDATA[video]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Leanne Maxwell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 05 Sep 2009 11:33:12 GMT</pubDate><media:content url="https://img.sfist.com/assets_c/2009/09/Bay Bridge_chunmini-thumb-640xauto-437558.jpg" medium="image"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="text-align: center;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="225" data="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=71377" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"> <param name="flashvars" value="intl_lang=en-us&amp;photo_secret=ae29a26db3&amp;photo_id=3888765555&amp;hd_default=false"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=71377"> <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
