SFist was walking along Larkin Street near Ellis the other day, amidst the myriad delicious Vietnamese joints, and were stopped in our tracks by this rather festive-looking recycling bin.

Giant Hulking Muni Takes a Terrifying Interest in Small, Innocent Transportation Authority
Well, whaddya know. No sooner did we lavish praise upon the SF County Transportation Authority than Nat Ford, head of Muni, decided that he might be interested in committing a hostile takeover of the SFCTA... thereby making the TA as flawless as Muni.

(That's why we're always wishing we could seize control of SF Metblogs.)
