| Last week there were all kinds of activities and a
satsang in Viha country but I didn't have a ride. However, there was
an announcement that Harideva was bringing a crew down to El Rio...
Your Dive, a funky establishment about 10 blocks from my place, so I
headed out on foot to check it out. A block from my place is the Women's Building, where I played my first live gig about 25 years ago. I was known as Kid Business, fronting a band known as The Indicators. LOL!!!! The murals are reflective of many of the colorfully decorated buildings in the Mission District. Jivano |

| On virtually every block I ran into down and out
homeless people. While I was photographing the Women's Building
a guy was peeing on the street next to me in broad daylight. What makes this particularly disturbing is all the yuppies who walk past these folks as if they are not there. I can't photograph these people because I feel it is intrusive and disrespectful. These are folks who live without any privacy while others live in comparative luxury all around them. This is very difficult for me to accept but it is the case. Here is a street sign attempting to bring attention to this deplorable situation. Although I am not exactly homeless, I cannot afford any health care either. J |
