The Roofs of San Francisco

Interestingly, at least in my neighborhood, no one hangs out on the roofs. I'm not complaining. I had a gorgeous half hour up on my roof today sipping tea and looking at the view. It wouldn't have been nearly as cool if I had to share the roof with someone. I guess San Francisco is a little too expensive to have people keeping pigeons on the roof like in On The Waterfront. Plus I imagine there's some zoning ordinance. And sun is pretty common here, so people don't go up and sunbathe like in Dublin. It's not nearly as crowded as Seoul, so there's no need to get away from people.

Maybe it's because you can't jump from roof to roof because there are too many steep ones...

Maybe you should apply for an FCC license (or whatever license administered by whoever agency wonks) and broadcast your blog out into SF. Consider it a form of PsyOps. Look up PsyOps online, especially at a webstite like fas.org. I also reccomend cryptome.org. Cool shit. Spooky in the literal, pun, and metaphoric sense.
