San fran-disco

Here I am, back in San Francisco...so my plan to get some work tidied up was thwarted. I arrived and immediately came down with some sort of cold/flu thing which kept me in bed all day yesterday. Ah well. So today I still feel floaty but marginally more with it. The weather is lovely today, and I don't have much to do after we get the room cleaned up...being able to walk from one end to another is useful!

So apparently the film series that I organize with my pal Melanie went really well in my absence! Hooray! We showed "The Fall of the I-Hotel", I was really bummed to have missed it. Next month we're showing "Strong Roots", about the landless workers' movement in Brazil. That should be good.

All my pals got out of jail after the court ruled that the NYPD were in contempt of court for holding people for far more than 24 hours. That ol' wacky Writ of Habeus Corpus, the courts are so particular about it! Anyhow, the NYPD faced fines of $1,000 per person held after their ruling. Huzzah!

OK, I'm still out of it, so less rambling until I can form coherent thoughts.
