DON’T DRIVE!! We are steps away from the BART/MUNI station at Montgomery, and parking sucks in SF anyways.

Author events are podcast by Rick Kleffel, at The Agony Column; book commentary, reviews and podcasts. Check it out daily.

Bar proceeds and tips go to benefit Variety Childrens’ Charity of Northern California. Our goal this year with SF in SF is to raise $5,000 to help Variety in a number of endeavors, including aid to families with children suffering from cancer, purchasing adaptive bikes for disabled children, and giving financial aid immediately where it’s needed. Variety the Children’s Charity is dedicated to improving the lives of children in our communities. We do this by providing programs of last resort which help families’ access medical care and related services that are not covered by insurance companies, hospitals, government agencies or community based organizations.
