Forgive us if you're one of the almost 500,000 who've seen it already... we hadn't, and it was shot in our very own Trader Joe's on Masonic on some guy's Palm Treo. It's a cute little ditty set to the tune of Jobim's "Waters of March," and we especially like the references to the over-small parking lot and the "twelve kinds of of soy milk that all taste the same." But what's that about "a snort, a sniff..."? Is TJ's selling cocaine now?
Late this morning at around 10:45 a.m., there was a bike-car accident at Fell and Masonic. According SFIst reader Alex, it "seems like a Range Rover hit a bicyclist at the intersection. The fact that this happened after the new signals is just horrid."
According to AlertSF, "Be advised, the westbound lanes of the Masonic Tunnel on Geary Avenue have been closed temporarily. Timetable for re-opening unknown." Will update as soon as we know more. Plan your ride home accordingly. (Sent to SFist at 3:56 p.m., 8/6) Update: All lanes are now open.
On one of our runs the other day through the Panhandle, we slowed down at the intersection at Masonic to make sure that no cars were careening towards us to take a left from Fell to Masonic. We always run east at that particular intersection - it's the only way you can make sure to see any potentially homicidal vehicles, as the view going the other way is always blocked by parked cars.
A safer Masonic, eh? Discuss.
