Discovered the Fairmont has a random display of films and tv with an association to the hotel and have to say I appreciate the solo Connie Sellecca highlight.

I very much liked the slow-burn anti-heist shaggy-dog film that is The Mastermind (2025, Kelly Reichardt).

OPINION: Vince Guaraldi’s introspective jazz soundtrack to “A Charlie Brown Christmas” helped make the show a holiday classic, Bill Dal Cerro writes.

Growing up the (now long gone) KJAZ 92.7 FM was always on, so loved seeing this come across my screen and while I’m a sicko $168 is way too steep for an old sweatshirt.

I wrote this @sfchronicle.com column and still can't believe it happened.

Photos of a high-speed auto race in Golden Gate Park. Cars going 100+ miles per hour, often with no barriers separating them from the crowd.

Golden Gate Park was once home to high-speed auto racing (It did not end well)
Speeds were high and safety was low in the Guardsmen classic, a short-lived automobile race that accelerated through San Francisco’s biggest park. We found the startling photos.
