Poof…

Somehow I managed to miss the KFOG Kaboom for the second year in a row. This enormous fireworks show is done, free of charge, by San Francisco’s favorite radio station. KFOG (104.5 FM in the SF bay area) somehow has the clout to get the whole city out for its celebration and yet remains admirably independent of ownership from the radio cabaletry of Clear Channel and Infiniti Broadcasting. Bravo.

And what was I doing? Eating Thai takeout and watching Dr. Zhivago. Oy.

  1. I wish I could go, but every year they schedule it for Mother’s Day weekend, and I have to be at Home, celebrating my mother’s motherhood. ‘Course, if they waited a week, then it would interfere with Bay to Breakers, the other SF-wide party. *sigh*

  3. I just have to ask – did you stay awake through Dr. Zhivago? It’s my Mom’s all-time favorite movie, and I’ve never made it more then 40 minutes without falling asleep. I’ve tried to watch it numerous times, and every time – sleep. I guess if I ever suffer from insomnia I’ll know what to watch!
