Only in San Francisco a company can become successful and then get sued by its neighbors for being too successful and get evicted by their landlord.
Ike’s Place, a deli which is located in the heavily gay Castro District is a Yelp.com darling. They have out-of-this-world ratings and comments, and allegedly put together some of the greatest sandwiches this side of the memory of Little Woman on 29th and Clement.
After the general public started raving about Ike’s on Yelp, the lines started and people who wouldn’t normally venture to that part of town were taking up parking spots and, heaven forbid, spending money. The tenants in the upstairs units complained about the increased traffic, and the local business decided to call their lawyers and sue Ike.
Ike’s lease is supposed to run until 2018, but the landlord wants him out on his ear so he can find a less successful tenant. His neighboring business want him out so they have less foot traffic of people they could potentially monetize. Ike’s neighbors accuse of him of “terrorizing the neighborhood.”
The good part is that it’s nearly impossible to evict anyone in San Francisco, the really stupid part is that his neighbors, instead of opening a lemonade stand and profiting from the traffic, they decide to litigate. I say we begin a boycott on his neighbors; your thoughts?!

Barbara Boxer is Now a Blonde
Monday, May 24th, 2010Barbara Boxer is fighting for her political life, running for re-election this November, assuming she wins the June 8th California primary election. President Obama has made two appearances within the state to assist with fundraising, so apparently she and the Democrats are a bit worried about her chances in the November general election. According to her website, Boxer has more than $9 million on hand in her war chest.
Most people, including myself, feel she is about as safe as can be, considering California’s voting record and her mystifying popularity. I don’t really know anyone who actually likes her or thinks she does a good job, but they all feel she will beat her potential Republican opponents, either former HP CEO Carly Fiorina or perennial candidate, Tom Campbell.
However some think the “Scott Brown Effect” may doom her. Either way, I thinks she is worried, and this is, to me, obvious from the changing colors of her hair. In case you haven’t noticed, 69 year-old Barbara Boxer is now a blonde.
Over the years Barbara Boxer has been many things, from graying granny to ballsy brunette, and now a blonde. Let’s look at the many faces of Barbara Boxer, shall we?
