California

California. Gotta love it.

Yesterday I was walking on the pedestrian/ bikeway in the long park between Fell and Oak Streets, heading west toward Stanyan, which marks the border between the park I was walking in and Golden Gate Park. Approaching Stanyan, I noticed an official-looking message stenciled in white paint on the dark asphalt. It showed the silhouette of an automobile, and the text read, “DEATH MONSTERS AHEAD”.

Walking to the grocery store today, Margot and I saw a bus approaching. Up on the top of the front, where they usually put the route number and destination, this bus said, “NOWHERE IN PARTICULAR”. I did so much want to get on, but we had somewhere we had to get to. I wonder where that bus is now…

  1. Oh, I think it’s pretty easy to guess where that bus is now: nowhere in particular.

  2. I’m not sure the two are actually connected, but I thought immediately of the Popcorn Anti-Theater, a tour of absurdity, magic and mystery in San Francisco. I fully plan to go next time I visit the Bay Area if it is still in operation.
