"Yet the demonstrators were often indiscriminate, frequently targeting
the businesses and prized possessions of people of color."
"The mob smashed the windows at Creative African Braids on 14th
Street, and a woman walked out of the shop holding a baby in her arms."

I can rent backdrops and a stand for shooting family portraits? I
see that Looking Glass has such rental, but I now live in Fremont. Thx.
\_ Can't help you there, but I'm wondering what kind of camera
equipments you have? Do you already have the strobes?

proven that the suburban lifestyle, with its wide streets, plentiful
parking and large back yards is clearly superior to the crowded,
rat-infested warrens in the cities. But why are home prices dropping
in the suburbs, while still going up in San Francisco? Antioch, Vallejo,
Santa Rose, Hayward, Vacaville all nice places with plenty of free

my 30s and I am on travel for business without the wife. She is
probably in the top 10% of women her age in terms of looks and I
am not bad, but probably not as good-looking as she is. I went to
a dance club tonight for the first time in a long time and had the
following experience/revelations:

saving money. I'm curious, I've never been to a really expensive
restaurant. (Over $30 per person.) In general I've found that once I
get beyond about $10 the food doesn't get any better, instead I start
paying for stuff I don't care about, like "atmosphere." Which
basically means I've rarely been to a restaurant where the food

(e.g. 100000 people) with representations from all walks of life
(scientists, engineers, doctors, chefs, plumbers, nannies, ...) except
bad guys, transport them to a distant earth-like planet with abundant
natural resources, and take away all man-made objects (machines,
clothes, books, medicines, all tools, ...) How long will it take for

\_ The GOP was fillibustering everything at the end there, trying
to stop the health care bill from passing. They even filibustered
the defense appropriations bill, the traitors.

away with the Air Force. In return, I asked her to check on my
sons for a week while I was away. She skipped a day (and committed
a lie of omission when she didn't say so but admitted it when
questioned) and the upstairs bedroom was full of my sons' diarrhea all
over everything (wooden floor, bookcase, blankets) - which is not
