Where does everybody know your name? SFist
Where do you get your city gossip? Bartenders, kneecap-shatteringly brilliant anonymous sources, City Hall workers, drunk society dweebs who don't know any better.
What's your most embarrassing SF moment? During my wild days: blacking out at Otis – a night where, from what I'm told, after meeting SFAppeal's Eve Batey for the first time, I tore up her business card, threw it across the bar, and then danced on said bar. Batey and I have been close friends ever since.
Why do you love your neighborhood? Having lived in six different hoods, I love living in SoMa because it's close to downtown, the blocks are impossibly long, it and its citizenry are not afraid of change, and it lacks the putrid self-conscious stench of the Mission and Castro arrondissements.
What's your secret spot in town? I go to a 24-hour Walgreens when I'm sad. All that color and light perks me right up.
