The Jackling House, built by California architect George Washington Smith in 1926 for mining guru Daniel C. Jackling, will be taken off of life support. Yesterday, the Woodside City Council decided, after years of fighting over the issue, that the 17,300 square-feet Woodside mansion can be torn down by its current owner, Steve Jobs.

Remember when we told you Vice Presidential candidate/major fail Sarah Palin was coming to Woodside to show off her pretty legs, or whatever? Gave you the location, date, time, and everything? Well, the luncheon has, sadly, been canceled. Our pals over at Daily Kos sent us word this afternoon. The McCain camp blames a scheduling conflict, but, really, this just goes to show you how little GOP cares about the Golden State. What else is new, right? Anyway crestfallen doesn't even begin to describe how we feel about this latest development. (Sorry, Jameth.) Update: It's been rescheduled for October 5. Huzzah! See you at the Siebel's, Sarah!

LiveJournal user Jameth is asking readers to send him to Sarah Palin's Woodside Luncheon, happening on Thursday, Sept. 25th, in Woodside (SFist's official off-site headquarters. What?) at Tom Siebel's pad. And he needs your money, folks. What will your hard-earned money get him, you ask? Well, $1,000 will get him a moose burger and a glass of Tang, and for an extra $1,500 he'll get a McCain-Palin pin. So, if you feel like sending him a PayPal donation, you can do so here. (Oh, and if Jameth doesn't get enough cash by the RSVP deadline, he'll donate it all to No on Prop. 8.)

Look what little SFist found waiting patiently in the inbox.
