VP Joe Biden Vists SF for Barbara Boxer

Wondering what all of that security in SF was for on Saturday? Well, Vice President Joe Biden was in town, showing face at a private party. (Matt Baume has footage of his royal arrival right here.) See, Biden "swung by Pacific Heights Saturday, speaking at a $5,000-a-plate fund-raiser for U.S. Sen Barbara Boer's re-election campaign," reports SFGate. The Democrat from the Bay Area is hoping to win her third term, running against former HP CEO, breast cancer survivor, and retail-vendor-to-Iran Carly Fiorina. In related vice presidential news, Vanity Fair journalist and future Playgirl model Levi Johnston claims that crazy Alaskan Sarah Palin referred to her son Trig as "my little Down's baby" and "the retarded baby." Oh Sarah, how we've missed you.

And that Katie Couric sure can sing!

Happy Ash Wednesday!

We plan on celebrating first day of Lent by burning a verboten Duraflame log under the duress of a doctor-prescribed Vicodin.

Yesterday, presidential hopeful Joe Biden released details of his plan for the health care system, and coincidentally, we spotted this sign in an area of San Francisco that our 2001 Muni map calls "Apparel City."

This isn't just tonight -- it's for all month -- but it's so cool we're making it the pick of the day! Bank of America customers, you can flash your ATM card or credit card and you and a guest get into a bunch of local museums for free, free, free! (Wells Fargo card holders, you'll have to pay not only admission but also a $2.50 service charge. Kidding, kidding.) Offer applies to the SFMOMA, the Asian Art Museum, the California Academy of Sciences, the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Dede's DeYoung, and the Legion of Honor. We've been meaning to check out the Picasso show at the SFMOMA and now we've got no excuse!
