 Sad December 18, 2008

I think this is a very offensive posting, and I can hardly believe it appears on the same page as the San Francisco Ballet. I enjoyed watching them on PBS last night, and was even thinking of buying a DVD I can't afford, and I have to be faced with a hostile, hateful message like this one. It is disappointing and it makes me angry. I think the holiday season often brings out the worst in some people. If they are basically awful people all year round, I suppose it isn't very realistic to expect miracles to happen at this time of the year. Yesterday on the bus I had to endure a verbally abusive remark from a total stranger much younger than I am who was contemptuously sneering at me as she apparently heard that I don't have a "date" for new years eve. Some people do not believe the best way to start a new year is to go out and pardon the expression, "get laid" and (get screwed.) I obviously do not share the same values she does, but she doesn't have to attack me and attempt to humilate me on the bus. What a lovely young woman!
 Best Weekend EVER!! LOL! July 1, 2008

I travel to San Francisco once or twice a year to get away from LA. Saw the book on Amazon and figured it would probably be a humorous read but didn't really expect any practical advice. To my surprise it was actually both. It's a smart funny read but it also REALLY DOES have the low down on free food, fun, and frolicking. My boyfriend and I went up a few weeks ago and planned the whole weekend using the book. Found plenty of art, parks, and music to keep us busy and hit some cheap and/or free happy hours and food joints. Probably the most fun I've had in the City and definitely the least expensive weekend ever! Thanks for the tips. Much appreciated!!

This book is packed with great facts and activity suggestions for both locals and tourists, and for those, like me, who go to SF often as a day trip.
It covers pretty much every interest a visitor might have. Plus it's a slim volume, reasonable to stick in your backpack.
an up-to-date guide for locals and vistors alike! June 17, 2008

An essential read for cheapskates and big spenders alike. Written with a knowledgeable and detail oriented style. Even if you have never set foot in SF, it is an entertaining study of the city's culture.
