We're already getting tired of this story. Can we please get back to the Ed Jew investigations? The only coverage we're enjoying is Bad Reporter's! (We're enjoying Bad Reporter's coverage very, very much, though. "No oxygen: He could die.") Here's the latest in Daly Fight 2007: more ›

Bright and early Wednesday morning, and searchers say it looks like the two hapless whales are nowhere to be seen. Did they swim out to the Pacific in the middle of the night? Or are they just wandering around lost somewhere else in San Francisco Bay? Don't put it past them! more ›

First bedbugs, then crack addicts, then bone-rattling noise -- that's the sort of bad-neighboring up with which Tenderloin residents will not put. Residents of the Lawrence Hotel have been scowling for a long time now at the deafening noise generated by Club Six -- check out these complaints. Shaking windows and floors, people on medication for sleep deprivation due to noise, doors left illegally open, and crowds so big on the sidewalk that you have to walk into the street to pass by. Yikes. We all like fun, but it's nice to have a downstairs neighbor who doesn't routinely rattle your teeth. more ›

There's never a good time to visit the emergency room, but being forced to do so on the same day as Bay to Breakers would definitely be an even bigger bummer. We thought our fianceé Daniel Phifer would be avoiding the whole mess altogether when he ventured over to Berkeley on Sunday morning to engage in some very adult activities. Unfortunately, he returned to San Francisco a few hours later with a shattered wrist (he should've attended the Safety Day in March!) and a visit to the Kaiser emergency room that inconveniently coincided with the winding down of SF's annual drunken marathon—well, one of them, at least. Here's the account told last night through Daniel's itchy, Percocet-induced haze, as he awaits surgery in the morning (they're putting a high-tech plate in his wrist that will get him well on the road to recovery in a couple of weeks): more ›

We already mentioned yesterday's shootings, but we have something to add to it. SFist reader Jerry Jarvis was in the area and got the aftermath on video. We don't see the actual shooting, but we do get to see eyewitnesses give accounts of the incident. Check it out-- it's total "you are there." more ›

To paraphrase an old joke about hockey, we went to a Town Hall meeting last night and a protest broke out. Case in point, the above photo of an attendee making a calm and rational point about the meeting by first shouting at Gavin and then approaching him while Gavin filibustered. We'll let SFist Elaine describe the scene. If you want more eyewitness accounts, Fog City has a recap as well as official Editor in Emeritus, Jackson West. ABC 7 has a video of the scene more ›

Gavin, Schmavin -- bored now. Call us when a shorn-headed Gavin goes bananas outside Kimberly Guilfoyle's house and starts whacking an SUV with a bright-green umbrella! (Maybe Britney was just looking a little too much forward to a drink at the end of her workday as well.) more ›

Well, it's not exactly muppets, but SFist reader Jerry Jarvis tipped us off to this three minute documentary on the Bush Man. Who doesn't love watching tourists jump back, scared half to death by some guy hiding behind a fake bush? Luckly, no editors of SFist were harmed in making this video. more ›
