On Thursday November 3rd the Guardian family descended upon Buck Tavern to toast 45 years of "Printing the News and Raising Hell." The cadre included current and former staffers, as well as SF politicos and friends of the Guardian from over the years. While Chris Daly and his staff kept busy slinging stiff drinks and setting out yummy snacks, the Guardian family was aglow in celebrating four and half decades of representing San Francisco values. Hip Hip Hooray!

LOL

Marke's not old and Caitlin isn't either. But everyone else is getting up there. Steven still looks good and with his body I wouldn't kick him out of bed. Biking certainly has its benefits.
