We love this tribute, which was found by Flickr user tingley at 24th Street at Osage Alley. It even lit up at night. Sniff.

this evening (the awesome, awesome episode involving double-dipping and Teri Hatcher's breasts), we were teased during a news break to tune into a very special episode of the KTVU 10 o'clock newscast. Intrigued, we watched something else instead. So what did we miss? Dennis Richmond announced that he is going to retire. His last broadcast will be May 21, 2008.

In addition to unveiling the MacBook Air, le Jobs also premiered a new look. Or not. Seamus over at Rangelife picked up on this minor broadcasting muddle over at KTVU. Dennis Richmond will not be pleased.

It's the third annual San Francisco Notable Portrait Auction, to benefit Creativity Explored! We love this event. Creativity Explored is dedicated to promoting works by local developmentally disabled artists, and they invite a group of local celebs to sit for portraits by their artists, and then auction them off with the celebs in attendance. Jonathan Richman (!!!!) will also be playing.

For months, the entire Bay Area has been flummoxed by one question, one mystery so confounding that it's all everyone, or at least several people, have been talking about-- where's Leslie Griffith of KTVU?

Our friends and family tried to tell us, but we had to find out for ourselves anyway: July in an ivy-covered Northeastern college town is no place for a California boy. We mention this because that's where we were four summers ago, huddling by the air conditioner in a townie bar to escape the heat that had been trying to braise us, watching the A's play Cleveland on ESPN, when we discovered the best. Promotion. Ever: Mug Root Beer Float Day at the Oakland Coliseum. Mulder was pitching, but ESPN had video of Hudson and Zito scooping vanilla ice cream into Mug root beer.

SFist has lived in this city a long time and there are some mysteries about this place that we’ll never fathom. Like all the guacamole love. Or what’s up with Dennis Richmond’s eyes and why does he always look stoned? But by far the greatest mystery about this city is this- why can't anybody move to the back of the bus? Anyone who has ever tread upon MUNI knows what we’re talking about. You get on the bus and if it’s a crowded one, you instantly run into a wall of people and while you stand there, getting walloped by people’s backpacks and breathing in the overly perfumed aroma of the person next to you with whom you are now fairly intimately acquainted with, you look up to see green pastures towards the back of the bus. And as you get smushed and suffocated, you notice that there’s enough not only enough room for people to stand comfortably, but for people to do Warrior II pose if they want.
