Here is an unusual news report: http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/realestate/rich-sf-residents-get-a-shock-someone-bought-their-street/ar-AApDDSC

            This couple is very clever; I gotta give 'em credit. I wish Nancy Pelosi still lived there  :) :) :o :o 8) 8) This would go right up her ass. She would no doubt turn the IRS, the FBI and the EPA loose on them. And Governor Moonbeam, too.

  ;D           I think what they'll do is let these millionaires squawk like hens in a henhouse for a couple years while they have their silly lawsuits and then they will end up paying this couple a couple million to buy back their street and their guard shack.

             Then they'll move to Portland or Seattle and figure out how to open yet another precious little boutique restaurant where they'll be able to tell you the name of the chicken you're eating.

A great comment, tooseevee.  I loved it.  ;D Not only did Nancy live there but so did (or does, I get confused by the reporting) our old and "progressive" Senior Senator, Diane.  Also, apparently some SF City mayors used to hang out at that secret location - which is no longer secret.  :o I was also interested to read that there are 108 privately-owned streets in San Francisco.  ???  I guess they will all be checking to be sure that their tax payments are up to date from now on.   ;)
