In 2004, a guy who I don't know named Jeremy Abbate saw my website and wrote a song called "I Wanna Be As Cool As Jessica Barron." It still amuses me.
Here's the mp3 and here are the lyrics.

See how this site looked in 1998
and how the place looked in 2000.
Yahoo counted me as a "cool person" from 1997-2001. How far have I fallen?!
The internets have come a long way, baby...

Gavin Admits He Likes Us
|

Check this out: Our cute, hot mayor and #1 fan Gavin Newsom was caught on camera, and he admitted he liked the idea of having a pirate TV station in SF (Pirate Cat TV 13, of which I'm a founding member along with Monkey and Junglebook).
Watch this quick video clip (shot by Junglebook on Saturday at the Fulton Street Fair) where Gavin comes out of the closet as a Pirate Cat fan.
As if that's not enough magical multimedia surprise for you -- you should download this mash-up made by Pirate Cat Radio DJ The Rat. It's called "Bang On," and it mixes together "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" by Nancy Sinatra (which you may remember from the 'Kill Bill' soundtrack) with "Dream On" by Aerosmith and "In the Year 2525" by Zager and Evans.
I think it's hauntingly beautiful.Labels: gavinnewsom, mashup, piratecatradio, pirateradio, radio, sanfrancisco, sf
