When Random Jibberish is riding in a time machine way far into the future...

. . . For the first time since forecasters began recording data — at least 132 years — the mercury did not reach 70 degrees in downtown Los Angeles for the entire month of February . . .

Love the Waters of March!

 

Sad!

. . . Though San Francisco may be more well known around the world, it’s not as worldly . . .

Gordon Douglas, assistant professor of urban and regional planning and director of the Institute of Metropolitan Studies at San Jose University, said that San Jose has vibrant immigrant neighborhoods throughout the city, though it hasn’t always been recognized for them compared to San Francisco.

He said areas like Japantown, East Santa Clara Street and Luna Park, known to residents as the Northside, have their own unique feel to them representative of the immigrants who settled in them. . . .

“Neighborhoods like that are what I think people don’t realize are in San Jose,” he added. “They are surprisingly dense and diverse urban neighborhoods. If the image you have of San Jose is suburban sprawl… I think people don’t realize there are those neighborhoods.”

Where's San Jose University?

 

RIP.

Jan Michael Vincent had a minor role in Buffalo 66 back in 1998. Gave a copy of the film to Wondo after his return from the World Cup in 2014. If you see the film you can guess why.

Jan-Michael Vincent has a cameo in the current, critically acclaimed movie "Buffalo 66." . . .

Here’s something that should be mandatory for all fourth officials - it would really help limit the dissent:

 

Wonder what the visitors' locker room looks like there?

 

Hmm...the article seems to have nothing to say about the 150,000 Vietnamese Americans who live in San Jose *scratches head* who built temples and businesses throughout the entire East Side. Major missed opportunity...

 

Unlike the previous 3/4 seasons, it looks like the Warriors are losing more than they had been. They are still on top of their division though.




Are they just waiting for the playoffs at this point?

 

San Jose is 8th happiest city in America. (SF is at #10 and Oakland #37). Minneapolis lags at #26. Survey obviously conducted before last Saturday.

To make it to 102 she obviously didn't enjoy the same indulgences as her father.

 

Exhibit opening this weekend at the McKay Gallery in San Jose's History Park, featuring a number of significant, and beautiful, 19th and early 20th century local paintings, including by Andrew P. Hill and A.D.M. Cooper. I attended the opening reception Sunday afternoon, and the exhibit is highly worthwhile.

For more than 55 years, local historian Leonard McKay assembled a distinctive body of work comprised solely of historic paintings by Santa Clara Valley artists . . . McKay began attending art exhibitions and auctions to build the collection: “One of the things I like so much about these paintings is that they are a record for San José.” The resulting collection is wonderfully rich, diverse in styles and media, and a record of San José the Museum is proud to share with the public . . .

While in the park, drop by the gift shop and pick up a postcard of a cool early 80s British poster from the museum's Soccer Legacy Collection advertising the San Jose Earthquakes' appearance at Griffin Park to play Brentford, with the price listed in pounds.
