What does the Chronicle's middle-aged sit-lie advocate listen to while riding his bike to work? Jimmy Buffet's finest album of country music collaborations from 2004, of course. As Nevius himself tweeted from his morning commute earlier: "Another sunny day in San Francisco. Riding to work listening to Jimmy Buffett's 'License to Chill.'" more ›

With news from various local Occupy camps mostly settling down, the Chronicle's number one homeless camping critic weighs in on the current state of Justin Herman Plaza today. According to C.W. Nevius, fueling some anti-Occupy sentiment in his Tuesday column today, the occupiers have now resorted to calling the cops down to the plaza to handle intra-camp scuffles more times than SFPD has moved in on their own accord. more ›

Here's a nice bit of coffee-and-a-paper reading for your Sunday: over on Salon, the site's co-founder Gary Kamiya has penned a nice takedown of the paper of the Chronicle's lackluster Occupy SF coverage.

(Overdorf is also the coiner of the term "Kafkaesque journey" in reference to this case.) more ›

Love him or hate him, spunky Chronicle columnist C.W. Nevius refuses to side with the average Valencia Street-dwelling trustifarian robot who eschews motorized vehicles. And for that? We love him... even if we don't agree with him too often. Take, for example, today's rant against ranked-choice voting. He's not totally into it, you see. Comparing rank choice to "a slot machine" -- an electoral process we would simply adore -- Nevius says: more ›

C.W. Nevius clued us in to some surfing turf wars and comical lingo in his column today. There's apparently been a large number of newbies risking their lives at the treacherous Fort Point (the short stretch under the Golden Gate Bridge) in recent years, which has caused a lot of friction. more ›
