I post this every so often: In the 1992 movie Sneakers they methodical go through the 4 Bridges that cross the San Francisco Bay. They strike each bridge to determine where a character was taken. The bridges were the Golden Gate, The Bay, San Mateo and the Dumbarton. Here are all 4 bridges and 3/4ths are from the air. #Golden Gate #BayBridge #Dumbarton #SanFrancisco #SF #Movie #Sneakers #SanMateo #Bridge #bridges #SFBayArea #landscape #transportation Movie Scene here: youtube.com/watch?v=KuIheGaiFL

#WordWeavers 2502.11 — Do you belong to any writing organizations? Are they helpful?

Yes. One. SFWA (Science Fiction Writers of America), a lifetime member. Since it requires novel or story sales to be accepted, it proves my bonafides. It also helps authors interface with publishers, etc. Personally helpful... Well, I haven't needed anything specific from them, so I can't say. I do know that it does help members who are in need, and offers a group health plan (or did at one time), and other things.

"San Francisco is not a beautiful city." -- so says #CharlesBarkley, who doesn't know sh*t about anything other than playing basketball . . .

which is a very limited knowledge set.🤦‍♂️

Charles Barkley is an idiot but, if what he says keeps other idiots like him from coming to #SF, I'm all for it because there are already TOO MANY idiots from "somewhere else" in #TheCity.😊

If The City were just occupied that those of us who were born & raised here, it would be an even better place. 😎

Does he really think he looks "beautiful" in this picture. LOL! 🤦‍♂️

F*ck Charles Barkley!!!! 🤬
