BART Police Warning stickers

I'm glad BART has decided to warn it's users of the inherent risks they take every time they ride the public rails system with these new stickers. BART police are there for our protection, because our taxes pay their salaries, so if they didn't actually kill people who could possibly be criminals, wouldn't they be wasting our hard earned money?

Just saw this billboard correction this morning. It's an ad in support of Prop 19 to legalize marijuana in CA.


If you read the details, Prop 19 is actually a step backward from legalizing marijuana

Death of a 76 Ball

Kinda sad to see these things go. When I see one of these signs it reminds me of my "Sprirt of 76" swimming trunks that I had when I was four years old in 1976. In some signage graveyard somewhere there is probably a giant 76 ball overflowing the top of a giant KFC bucket, resembling some sort of artistic representation of the deteriorating effects of chemicals and fast food on our planet....as it slowly leaches trace elements into the groundwater below it.
