Saturday, December 12 was the now-annual Santa Con.

| Crowds along Polk Street |
All
the bars and restaurants along Polk Street from Post to California and beyond were busy with happy customers.
Everyone
looked like they were having a good time, although

| Larkin Street traffic |
I doubt the same can be said for the people sitting in the surrounding traffic jams.
Not all the revelers were rich young techies.
While waiting on a corner for a
light to change, I overheard one santa-woman
ask a santa-man what he did for a living. “I install custom
glass," he said, "for all the places I can't afford to live in,” which brought
nods and sounds agreement from many others.
