Jamming on the 31 last night
After yelling about the white man and his separation from the late James Brown, this guy pounded out rhythms, chest-high kicks and grunts from Van Ness to 35th Ave. Awesome…
This gem of a diary came to our inbox from Renee. Thanks, Renee!

Time to Sharpen the Pitchforks?
SFMTA will be holding its first public hearing on proposed route cuts and fare hikes (as well as other measures the agency has proposed to close a $130 million budget deficit for the next fiscal year) today at 2 p.m. in Room 400 at City Hall.
If you go, to observe, to air grievances, to offer solutions, whatever your motive, let us and our readers know how it turns out in the comments here or an original post.

Muni Diaries Anniversary Favorite: Livin’ the dream, for at least one night
Muni Diaries is gearing up to celebrate our first anniversary this Friday. What started out as an idea at SF State has grown into a community of lively transit tales and spirited discussion of our beloved bus system. Below is the first of a series that looks back at our favorite diaries over the last year. Today’s favorite diary was chosen by Jeff: “I love this post because it’s the ultimate tale to be envious of. A lot of us dream of doing the most extraordinary of ordinary things, like driving a cab in NYC or a bus in San Francisco. Tony was fortunate enough to take a stab a that ‘dream,’ and he tells the story like a true master storyteller.” Check back tomorrow for Eugenia’s favorite diary.
Livin’ the dream, for at least one night (originally posted on July 31, 2008)
When I was kid growing up in this burg, I never wanted to be cowboy. I didn’t want to be an astronaut, either, or even a rock star. I kind of wanted to be a baseball player and I was a pretty good pitcher, but not that good. Anyway, what I really wanted to be was a Muni driver.
