LoveItaly...yea..I knew who he was but my fuzzy brain just couldn't pull it up. I lived in Marin from the time I was 10 until I was 30 and moved to Reno, so I'm pretty familiar with all the "characters" but Emperor just wouldn't come to me..is aldzheimers far behind? Well, I'm going to be looking for Bushman next time I'm down that way. I sort of think of it like..here I am, walking along the wharf..think Jaw's music. Pass a bunch of bushes..is it him?!!!!!! The music builds and then suddenly...there he is!!!!!! Oh, can't wait. LOL

I thought Wille Brown was Emperor Norton? :-?

I think I took a swing at "Shields" of "Shields and Yarnell" at Ghirardelli Sq in the early 70s.
Damn mimes!!!:O)

Kal...it's just mime over matter. A mime is a terrible thing to waste. Your place or mime. The Wharf is like a mime field. (:

Thx cre, but those jokes weren't very....ahhhhhh....punny. :))

Mimes and people who try to get "The Big Guy" to hula in Hawaii....There IS a special place in ((6))((6))((6)) for them!

Happy Saturday everyone!

Seetheworld, I don't think you or anyone else will get to see the insane Norton, he has been dead since the early 1880's. But then again, in SF anything is possible.

Uhm Crefloors - lets just say we have a "seniors moment" now and then. It sounds less scary, right? BTW, remember Laughin Sal? She is now on the Santa Cruz Broadwalk.

Kal, behave yourself this weekend! And have fun.
