Clipping Nails on Muni, the 2011 edition
I guess when some people have to clip their nails, the urge to so is like needing your fix for caffeine, chocolate, or heroin.
That, or people still don’t care that this ends up online.

Today at Muni Time Capsule, we published a couple of photos of old Muni fare tokens issued by Market Street Railway, ostensibly sometime before it merged with Municipal Railway in 1944.
Check out the old tokens and other Muni ephemera over at Muni Time Capsule.

Muni Media Map Art Show This Saturday
From the organizers:
The Muni Media Map is a celebration of that glorious chaos: a collaborative multimedia exhibition organized by Revel Art Collective including 20+ Bay Area participants. Each artist selected a specific Muni line to explore in a medium of their choice, including sculpture, sound, music, mixed media collage, illustration, performance art, video, time lapse photography, interviews, comics, and participatory events. The Muni Media Map displays and integrates these investigations as a giant interpretive map of the city, transforming the gallery itself into an installation.
This Saturday you can see the Muni media map on display as a part of the 100 Days of Spring show.
Details:
Saturday, May 28th
