With all the bad economic news the country has been getting (thanks to eight years of Bush-Cheney) it is time for us to relax a little and laugh. Laughter is a very power medicine and it is exactly what the country needs right now - at least we sure need a few more laughs here in San Francisco.
The image of J. Edgar Hoover look-alikes walking the runway in lingerie is not a particularly pretty picture, but it could be a fun evening if it included stand-up comedy and some "Saturday Night Live" type skits.
We need a few laughs, people, so here are some upcoming opportunities:
