Dear Cirque du Soleil, My wife and I have been attending Cirque shows for years – going back to before we met 10 years ago. When our son was 3 we started taking him to shows every year as well. He’s now 6, and our annual trip to Cirque has become the way we kick [...]
In the 16 years I’ve lived in San Francisco I’ve never been in a “destination neighborhood” for Halloween trick or treating. Until now. Last night we ran out of candy not once, but twice. It was awesome. Leading up to Halloween, our neighbors warned us of “tons of kids” and “bags of candy gone in [...]

This is the C-series Benz that belongs to my 20-something neighbor. The guy opted to try and “secure” his front license plate with zip ties. Zip ties. Seriously, zip ties. Not only that, but he only used two zip ties, so every time I saw his plate it was blown up on his grill like [...]
