What is in the water and is it contagious?
Build the wall - around SF!
Street yoga to street people and street walkers.
“The closures would all take place on Sundays in either August or September and would only last for four hours, but nonetheless Newsom said he knows the plan will be controversial.”
Aren’t these called block parties?
Go for it Mayer, screw up you city even more then it is.
OMG - this is serious??? I thought it was from The Onion!!!
"Instead of bringing people to open space," Newsom said, "we bring open space to people."
If they are turning roads into concrete parks, will they open up the parks for driving shortcuts? Driving across the soccer field and turning at the swing set will cut at least five minutes off the drive.
Is it going to be the Nekkid Yoga (the latest trend, doncha know)?
Who will be the next gov? Newsom or Villar?
It must be difficult to get the road into the lotus position! ;-P
>> San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom is attempting to find a way to close a major stretch of roadway to allow residents to do yoga in a wide open space.
Better get there early. There will be quite a bit of competition for the few square feet of real estate not occupied by “streetdweller” pee or vomit.
It will be amusing to watch the panhandlers assault a yoga class right in the middle of assuming the “lotus” position.
Right. The regular protests aren't enough nor are the street fairs, the street peddlers, the insane who stand on corners screeching their paranoia and hawking their politics. Tai Chi in the parks have been going on in the mornings since the 70s.
Yep, definitely insufficient "humanistic pursuits" happening in SF....
Besides, I think Newsom is being rather unfair -- SF has a huge crime problem - how dare he think these thugs are not pursuing personal "humanistic" endeavors!
Heck, some of us don't even need signs announcing "road closures due "humanistic endeavors" -- we already know which neighborhoods are definitely a bad move to drive thru.
