My tomato plant now has two green tomatoes. The bigger one is the size of a ping pong ball now...

   

  

By far the biggest piece of news I heard at the GPCA meeting in Sylmar on 5/22 was that Matt Gonzalez could run for Congress next year. A few days later I talked to Julia (a San Franciscan I know well enough to break bread with), who told me "Matt Gonzalez can't beat Nancy Pelosi." She thought having him run for one of the open State Assembly seats that serves the Haight (she didn't know which one of two was his) would be interesting. Now I'm thinking we need a "MATT GONZALEZ FOR ASSEMBLY" campaign, just to make sure he thinks about the idea.

Somebody gave me this video at the meeting. I didn't watch it until the following weekend. It's a great introduction to the seamier side of US Foreign Policy. Very worth checking out, even though a bit gross in spots.
