Save The Tower Theatre
I haven't been to a movie in a long time. So when I went to the Tower to see Al Gore's movie this mornng, I was surprised to find that the theater is once again campaigning for its life.

Considering all the events that we have had at 16th and Broadway, I think that we need to participate in saving this great old theater.

Please go to Save the Tower and sign on to help.

Arnold's Values (Not!)
Picking the Pockets of the Aged, Disabled

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said it himself while unveiling his $131-billion revised spending plan: A Budget is "much more than just ledger sheets ... A budget is all about values."

"It's an expression of who we are," he continued, "and what we really care about."

Right. So I won't be joing the large cheering section for this annual "May revision" of the governor's proposed budget for the fiscal year starting July 1.

Water, Water Everywhere

Look outside: The weather seems great, but one or two warm storms out of the tropics melting the snowpack (which is at 200%) and we have 1997 again; or one earthquake on one of the faults in the East Bay knocking out those 150 year-old levees and disaster hits; not just for Northern California but Southern California, and the Central Valley, (the pics are illustrative) which means - much less water for swimming pools, golf courses and most importantly several crops go dry and whither away.
