Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I woulda said Navajo too!
But I live right near a zone border, so I can go about twenty blocks east on the one zone fare, but more than about three blocks west gets me the two zone fare.
The craziest border used to be in front of Georgetown. If you got out on the street, it was one zone, if you had the cab pull into the circle driveway at the main gate, it was two. Of course, now you can't drive through the main gate, so that solves that.
Heh -- one of my favorite SF bar memories is the weekend of that crazy debauched Halloween F2F, when we went to Blondie's on Valencia and you kept ordering different martinis based on what the olives in them were stuffed with.
They had a lot of variety! I was very disappointed that they were out of the sausage stuffed olives. Drinking - that's a good way to spend an afternoon.
And for no particular reason...
SNL parody of Twin Peaks. Phil Hartman's Leland Palmer is genius!
What drives me nuts is that the Trader Joe's is just on the other side of a zone border. It's about seven blocks away, but if I've bought more than I can carry and didn't bring my cart with me, then I've got to hail a cab. Those seven blocks are about $10.
No reason necessary. God I loved that show.

I had that problem when I lived on Capitol Hill -- Union Station was four sketchy blocks, but two zones, away.
Let's say I have a bunch of books I want to sell. Are there online used book retailers that people can sell books to, where I can give them a list of books I want so sell and then they tell me which books they want to buy and I just mail them a big box full of those books?
I don't want all the trouble of selling books individually to a bazillion different people.
JEN!!! Happy birthday!!!
Whee!
OMG, I remember that Twin Peaks Parody!
That was an awesome episode of SNL. The k.d. lang bit, especially. (I should see if it's on YouTube, too.)
