Walkin’ down Sutter I finally spotted a Western Exterminator truck up close. Like most of ’em, unfortunately, the mouse was broken off. But he’s still one of my favorite local advertising icons. Apparently his name is See the rest »
It’s one thing to Sharpie something on a sign. But to jump up and slap on a googly eye takes a certain craftiness that, frankly, impresses the hell out of me.
UPDATE: See more on Personifeyed (Thanks, Mike)
Spotted on SF’s Embarcadero at Pier 29 1/2 [see more KYEO]

This brings up a terrific question: Why don’t you eat cats?
Bacon comes from an animal half as cute. Shouldn’t cats be twice as delicious?
There’s even a festival devoted entirely to eating cats Festival Gastronomico del Gato every September in Peru. Alas, this is not an ad for said fest. Nor does the Starter Guide set you down the path to becoming a feline feast fancier. It’s actually some sort of meatless propaganda. Bummer. Now it’s got me rethinking other animals, too. Like a grilled Panda Cow or Poodle-Bison burger. Mmm.
Spotted in Petaluma (the same placement as Healy’s Naked Power grab).

Tweekers and Bag Hos I’m clear on, but what the hell are scantless fish?
I turned to the trusty internets for a definition, expecting one result to come from Urban Dictionary, instead I got this urban Deep-Thoughts-on-crack discussion:
“Y is it femalez are so damn scantless?” See the rest »
Either a living, breathing Patrick Star was mooning us at the Monterey Bay Aquarium or a very convincing lookalike did a face-plant on the rocks. If so, the resemblance is uncanny:

Spotted this while driving into Carmel this weekend.
While it’s on the most English of hotels in town and vaguely Banksy-ish in style …
Spotted a motherload of street art on our last trip to LA. Mostly in Silverlake. This piece happened to be just up from the amazing Necromance. Enjoy.

Though I missed the REBEL8 “Return of the Lost Angels” event by a week (video here and recap at Fatlace) I was lucky enough to drive down Melrose in time to catch the huge bomb Mike Giant dropped on the Shepard Fairey wall at De La Barracuda.
Giant over Giant.
