Make Love, Not Assumptions

I took a friend from Miami to Haight and Ashbury to check out the place where the hippie movement started. We spotted a modern-day version of a hippie with a card board sign that read, "free hugs". My friend was sceptical and even her mother who only heard about it over the phone responded with, "she probably would pick your pocket while you hugged her". How sad. The revolution still has a long way to go. This is San Francisco people, show some love.

For those of you who don't know:

How to "spread some CalTrain love" according to the driver of a fully-occupied train who just happened to be leaving the station from San Francisco one of those days I was visiting this beautiful city: "Make room- no feet on the seats, no bags on the seats- sit down, shake a hand, and make a friend." Now that's what it's all about!
