I just want to share a horrific story that I think people should be aware of since this really did happen to me. I had a temper tantrum on July 30, 2006, and two of my windows were accidentally broken when something that I had thrown accidentally hit them.

Supes to Vote on Affordable Housing Package Today With the City facing $130 million in surplus revenues, Supervisor Chris Daly has proposed a $28 million budget supplemental to acquire, construct and rehabilitate housing – with half the units targeted at those making less than $27,000 a year. Over the weekend, Mayor Gavin Newsom said that he opposed the housing supplemental – while at the same time urging the City to “do more” to get more affordable housing units.
