The Tuesday night "Will San Francisco please take its weather home now?" genre link dump.

Seriously, it's like San Francisco winter weather outside today; cold, damp and drizzly gray. Feh. I understand that there are hurricanes and tempests and monsoons and waterspouts and wind tunnels and black holes and whirlygigs and global warming thingies all over the world. But here, in NYC, it is still SUMMER! Dammit! SUMMER! (You listening, Horace? Just cut this shit out right now.)

Tirade over. Onward with the linkypoo:
