11.19.01- 48 hours in sf

2 delayed planes, 3 caltrain rides, 4 muni rides, had my neck cracked by the chiro, shopping spree downtown, yummy sushi takeout from hanabi’s, big game tailgate (stanford kicked some cal weenie on the football field), skipped the actual game in favor of a trip to pescadero beach to climb around the tidal pools and look at the seals, dinner out with the gang, watched the meteor shower from the stanford golf course until the police came and made us leave, and finished A.S. Byatt’s Angels and Insects which was frightfully dull. now i am back in boise, broke, but i have new clothes and a neck that turns all the way to the right again.

say, a couple of days ago, i was listening to the radio and heard a news flash saying that investigators had stormed the homes of two city officials somewhere in pennsylvania looking for evidence that these two men might have masterminded the anthrax attacks. “wow,” i thought, “i’ll be sure to look for that in the newspaper tomorrow.” curiously, the next day there was nothing in the paper. nothing on cnn.com. in fact there’s been zero mention of anything related to that. so what i’m wondering is, did i hear a bogus news report, or is there some reason its being hushed up in the media? it seems like finding possible US culprits of the anthrax attacks might be news that americans would want to read about, doesn’t it? weird. if anyone else knows anything about this, i’d be curious to hear it…
