Bon voyag-ee, Cosco Busan! And don't come back! The leaky Cosco Busan ship that contaminated our beautiful bay with oil is expected to get clearance to get the heck outta Frisco, setting sail at noon today to head back to South Korea. We kind of have this vision of the ship disconsolately listing off into the sunset, leaving a trail of oil behind it, like when Wile E. Coyote hits something and walks off screen......

Well, first and most importantly! -- SFist MattyMatt's started a new job so he's been pretty busy at work and hasn't had time to post lately, for all folks asking about him in the SFist Tips column!. But he's still here, we promise! We miss him too! (Meanwhile, you guys can always check out his personal blog.) And second of all -- goodness, what a terrible day on the commutes. It's like when the sun,......

From the SFist Tips line: yet another daytime shooting yesterday, this time at 23rd and South Van Ness around 1:45 p.m, by the post office, and fatal. In a particularly brazen act, the shooters then drove by the SFPD Ingleside Station to drop off the body about an hour and a half later. You'll all be pleased to hear that the cops did at least manage to catch the person driving the car. Those activists......

Of course, we can't find any info about any of these alleged incidents in the usual online places, but here's a compendium of what's in the SFist Tips line and SFist itself for yesterday. We haven't confirmed if any of these are true, but thought you might want to see them anyways: --Shots at Page and Buchanan around 8 p.m. last night. --Shots in the Lower Haight (from SFist Dan -- not sure if this......

Oh No, Chris Daly! We don't even know what to say right now. We'd been hearing rumors all day (thanks to those hard-working folks over at the SFist Tips line) about a fight between District 6's rebearded progressive bad boy and the more moderate and clean-shaven Bevan Dufty of District 8, but didn't get confirmation of it until the Chron went live with their story. Sigh -- we don't even want to go into this,......

We'd noticed some new spray-painting on popular corners in the Mission, but didn't actually look at them until folks in the SFist Tips column passed along the word that it's part of a Choose Your Own Adventure graffiti piece. We didn't manage to figure out where it starts, but there's some good entries near Dolores Park and Tartine, and here's the one we found on 17th and Mission. There's a picture set on Flickr......
