Harvey Milk was shot in Dan White's (the asassin's) old office (-he'd asked Harvey to come there with him, though he shot Moscone, the mayor,  in the sitting room behind Moscone's own office.) on Monday, November 27, 1978. that night, Dianne Feinstein gave a short speech on the steps of City Hall, saying "this great bright jewel of a city is darkened."

I've had Mike Weiss' book about the double killing, "Double Play" among my baseball books in the front bookcase since it was written in 1984. I put it there, wondering who weould be the first to notice the non=baseball book among the baseball books. Nobody ever has.
Weiss thought the title "Double Play" reflected something of the childish and twisted mind of Dan White, who later committed suicide.

Shuggy here:

I'm at Pete's computer but I can't seem to log in as Shuggy.

I've just been to the Bear Fair at Hairrison St. Picked up some nice schwag for presents for friends back home, had one or two nice conversations, but mainly walking round looking at guys standing round.

I'm just about to walk down to BART at 16th and Mission to go to the airport. I'm quite travel weary, but it's been a joy to meet Clarissa and Julie, to stay with Pete and David, and talk on the phone to Melissa and SFeric.

Shuggy:
Back home. I've got a heap of mail to catch up, a stack of pictures to edit, but I thought it would be nice to put up the four most germane:

1. Ellemeno's picture of me and the Fremont Troll (a composite - too much contrast to use except as a record). My camera filled up, so I have no others. You maybe can't see that the Troll is holding a VW and I am trying to open the boot (bonnet actually, since it's a VW).

2.The drawbridge on the way to SeaTac that gave Elle and me longer together. I have a pic of Elle but she doesn't want it to go online.

3. TwistedDude doing the docent thing.

4. Pete at the SF LGBT centre just before or after Toastmasters. I seem to have focussed on the handsome man at the counter. Because my camera was taken, I never got a good one of Pete and Dave.  :'(

Shuggy:
Oh and two more:

1. The Proclamation that Pete got the Mayor to make.
2. Julie's copy of the original New Yorker cover. I have covered up a bit of obtrusion in one corner.

Shuggy:
And if people want to print out their own copy of the proclamation, I have cleaned it up and put it  up as a word.doc at Movie Resources.
