You gotta be willing to work hard, be alert and like getting dirty.

In my estimation, this is the best of both worlds given the competitive and exciting outcome of previous games. Plus our local fans will be thrilled to have the Pac-10 play in the game.

I remember when San Francisco was truly a dynamic city, but it has been reduced to a joke ... .

Up until his health problems, he was dynamic. He'd crawl up and patch the roof. Dad's kind of a take-charge guy. He's a tough guy. He's a Charlie Bronson.

Tom was outside during some of it and decided to go back in the house when he was having trouble standing up.

He then decided to go in the house instead. The hurricane hit the houses and stayed there, as Tom said it, for about 12 hours. Gloria passed in like three hours. It was like getting bombarded for half a day.

There was extreme wind, rain, loss of power, and then a couple of days later everything was normal. That's hurricane.

There was some private interest in the area at that time, Thurston having some of the few remaining green field sites in the city.

I'm a third-generation born San Franciscan, and I'm appalled that you have not only been elected but re-elected by your misguided ultra liberal so-called citizens.
