San Francisco: Flying, Fickle Finger of Fate Points at YOU

San Francisco has deserved the Flying, Fickle Finger of Fate for some time.  However, "the Finger" spins, and it is never quite sure where it will point when it stops (except, for example, when the "Anti-American, Despicable Associated Press--always use official name--decides to try to label the USA as an EVIL country for an alleged machine gunning by SOUTH KORENS of prisoners FIFTY YEARS AGO in the Korean War, where there was never any doubt where "the Finger" was going to stop that week).

 

"The Finger", as you should know by now, is this blog's unauthorized reincarnation of the old "Laugh In" award for conspicuous stupidity during a week.

 

San Francisco has done much to earn this coveted/dreaded award, from attempted exclusion of the U.S. military from the city to the essential encouragement of anti-Catholic and anti-Christian intolerance in the city (while condemning much less serious anti-gay intolerance). 

 

San Francisco is probably my favorite city in the world to visit. The food is outstanding and the setting is gorgeous.  However, I would not want to live there, and not just because of earthquakes.

 

"The Finger" (statuette of an INDEX finger) was finally induced to point at San Francisco because of the "Geowrge W. Bush Sewage Treatment Plant" (see yesterday's entry)--MEANT to be an expression of HATE and DISRESPECT.  Here is the exact story which prompted "the Finger" to point at San Francisco:

 

"A measure seeking to commemorate President Bush's years in office by slapping his name on a San Francisco sewage plant has qualified for the November ballot."  

 

There is no doubt, however, that--like the Oscars--this is something like a "lifetime achievement" award, where one incident has been picked out of many deserving ones for recognition.

 

Award ceremony:

 

Again, as a visual aid (no video or graphics to help you on the blog itself), I suggest you visualize Dick Martin presenting "the Finger" statuette on Laugh In, even though there is no implication that Dick Martin would have approved of this particular award.

 

Imagine Dick Martin THRUSTING "the Finger" at the camera:  "San Francisco, this award is for YOU.   You DESERVE it.  It is a shame that such a beautiful city is filled with such not so beautiful people."

 

Come back next Saturday (barring disruption in the schedulel), and see where the spinning Finger stops next time.  You can be sure that, like San Francisco, it will be another deserving recipient.
