I'm leaving SF for Austin at the end of November and my room in lower Haight will be opening up for Dec. 1st. $850/mo + utilities which is actually considered a pretty decent deal these days. Send me a PM if you're interested.
this thread is like reading a Q&A from a 6th grade sex ed classWhat's a clitoris?
I havent checked this thread for month:
It certainly is the thread that keeps on giving!
I was holding off to see if a dude I know in the neighborhood managed to get his before i pestered you for it.hey dude, all packages went out with tracking numbers. Just email me at info@wiredupbook.com with your name and I'll send you the tracking number.waiting for mine...Hope to get this on monday.
<USPS / Sucky neighbor rant>
Since my mailman has repeatedly done me wrong, anything shipped without a tracking number has me on edge. A few weeks ago my mailman cut off mail to my entire building because we had a bees nest above the mailbox. Apparently he got stung and had bad reaction and told my really annoying neighbor that all mail to our building was being held at the post office. Bitch never bothered to tell any of the rest of us that this was happening. I only figured it out when a shipment from Floria's Dying didn't show up, and I checked the tracking to find it in a 'out for delivery' state for 3 days. Called the post office 2x in one day, and finally someone was able to tell me what was happening. THANKS FOR TELLING US, ASSHOLE.
(His normal thing is to attempt delivery but never bother leaving a note)

A couple of things I think you're unfortunately too late to catch would be the combination Post Office / Ted Nugent Fan Club in Rosendale and the taxidermy museum housed in a funeral home basement in Madison. The taxidermy museum still exists, but I think the proprietor only allows the bereaved customers of the funeral home to check it out.In the past they would let anyone in as long as you called in advance to schedule a time. I called the funeral home a few weeks ago (before I headed to WI for a weekend) to find out what was going on, and got the following information: The basement is being remodeled, I don't think the taxidermy is even there right now, and Sam Sanfilippo's family is looking for a new space to put it all. If you've ever been down there, you'd know that this is a HUGE undertaking. The taxidermy filled multiple rooms.. but there were also plenty of pictures of Sam and all of his drinking buddies. I doubt that all of his personal items will move with the taxidermy, and that's a shame. It really added to the story.
I can't really think of that many around Oakland either... at least not in North Oakland. It may be "legal", but I've read the angry emails from neighborhood people trying to stop them from moving in.I came up from LA for the S-S thing and was really surprised by how few weed shops there are in SF. I walked around the area of the Hemlock for a couple hours and never found one. In LA there's a dispensary every hundred yards so I guess I take that shit for granted.
I think there's more in Oakland, especially since there's an actual area for it -- Oaksterdam.
Storing singles is the real problem for me. I can't bring myself to ordering those white cardboard boxes because of years spent dealing with the exact same type of box collecting comics as a kid. Too many memories stored up in that type of box, plus they're ugly as sin to leave laying around.
I had/have the same problem with 7" boxes laying around, and I came across a post that recommended these for 7" storage:

It was on sale at the nearest store, so I bought 1 to see how it would look. Probably took about 40 minutes to assemble, and I was able to fit close to 300 7"s in the whole thing. Only cons are you have to remove the shelf to reach the 7"s in the back, and they can be fairly expensive if you want multiple units.
The guy who recommended it posted the picture below, which is what sold me on it:
Stacking cinder blocks and boards is not a custom-built wooden shelf, and looks shittier than an expedit.
so you say. they look sharp in my basement, the bottom row is off the floor for "flood insurance", easy to assemble/disassemble, don't have to worry about them collapsing, and i have an extra $100+ to spend on records. but you're right this is not a custom-built wooden shelf and it looks shittier than an expedit. it just happens to work for me.
