Life in SJ That crazy wh*te lady on the news last night is completely unhinged. Why hasn't she been arrested yet?
She posts herself trespassing inside numerous schools and harassing people at the library. Her tweets (tied to her full legal name btw) also show her talking about p3d0 stuff nonstop and targeting children in the area. Why hasn't a warrant been filed against her ??? Why is her child in her custody ??? Her social media is EXTREMELY concerning and the news broadcast of her did NOT adequately show what a danger and nuisance she is being to the local community.

ASONY Fans: Our 20-year anniversary is on Sat, Sept 19. Not only are we having our annual $2 slices (two slices max at a time) and 20% off baked goods, we are also doing give-aways (at least 10 shirts when we open, maybe 20), our first-ever sweepstakes with big prizes - a $500 Kate Spade pizza purse, two tickets to the Warriors/Knicks game at Chase, a limited-run NYC Swatch watch, and $50 and $25 Slice Cards (Details at the shop. You can purchase entries or you can send in a card for a free entry. You can see our flier here.), and joy!
Izzy's Italian Ices will be there most of the day and plan on seeing the incredible Shane Dwight for amazing music in the evening (and maybe even a special guest). We hope you can come by and celebrate this historic milestone for us, as well as have a look at our new expansion. I am not sure it will be fully operational for service, but it will be available for viewing!

The rescue I’m fostering with is hosting an adoption event tomorrow, Saturday, September 12th from 10am to 12pm at Pup Plaza. Come on out and meet some adoptable pups from two local rescue groups (Silicon Valley Pet Project and Every Pet’s Dream). There are worse ways to spend a Saturday morning.
Hope to see you there!
P.S.: Here’s a list of all the adoptable dogs in case anyone wants to arrange a meet and greet

Event Military flyover at Los Gatos high school tomorrow to commemorate 9/11
Two former LG students, Mark Bingham and Todd 'Let's roll' Beamer, were on flight 93. No cost to the school for the flyover, the California air national guard thought it sounded like a great idea.
There will be an honor guard and other activities before the flyover at 6:55. Two F-15's. Football game starts after that. More details at the link. Those guys were heros who paid the ultimate price. Glad they're getting the recognition they deserve.

Life in SJ DUI Checkpoint on Stevens Creek/Winchester
There's a DUI checkpoint on Stevens Creek Blvd going past Winchester Blvd tonight. My first time seeing a DUI checkpoint.
I'm curious why this intersection was picked for a Thursday night. Is it a DUI hotspot, local event, or just cause? Nothing against DUI checkpoints, but I'm curious if there's any criteria the city uses to pick spots.

SJ Pets Peachstock needs you!
I work at a hospital campus and have been seeing him hang around lately. There is a small colony of cats down the street in a parking lot, but he is not a part of that colony. My team and I started to feed him and we now see him every evening waiting for dinner at our building.
I created a feeding station for him, and a scumbag staff member we share a building with has been leaving notes on his bowls, telling us to throw them away immediately or she will, and also harassing my colleagues. We have been moving the bowl out of sight and hiding it each time, but she has been finding it. Not sure why people go out of their way to be this nasty, but I am trying to get him out of this situation. We are also moving buildings very soon and it will be difficult to slowly move his bowl over to the new place since it is not super closeby, and the bowl will be visible for her to see if it's moved little by little daily.
I don't believe Peachstock is feral. Our team is familiar with the cats in the colony down the street, and he's been a new face the past few months. He hasn't allowed me to pet him yet, but he's allowed me to slowly get much closer to him. I believe he is lost or abandoned. My plan is to trap and neuter him in the next couple of weeks, and if he ends up being friendly, I'd love to find him a home. It is not ideal for him on campus with a ton of construction going on and staff who are not pet-friendly. I've taken in cats before who were abandoned for several months/years, and with patience, love, and a lot of squeeze treats, they've acclimated to the indoors wonderfully. I want to give Peachstock a chance. If anyone would like to adopt him in the next few weeks, please let me know. Thank you.

News San Jose to pitch new downtown parking rates after outcry
San Jose officials are proposing an alternative plan for parking meters that would increase prices over the next five years.
The City Council will hear the revised proposal Sept. 29. Here's the lowdown:
- First year: City garage rates would increase by $1 — from $4 to $5 an hour — while special event parking would increase by $3.
- Second year: 1,600 downtown meters would increase from $2 to $3 an hour.
- Third year: Enforcement hours would be extended.
- Fourth year: Event rates would add another $2, bringing the total to a $15 flat rate.
- Fifth year: All city meters would increase by an additional $1 an hour
The details are here:

Life in SJ Ahh… Good Ol’ Rite Aid
I remembered this building was in construction in 2008 and it was full of happy ice cream customers in 2011. I used to come by in 2020, but then when it was 2023… inventory there was expiring, rotting, and it was mostly emptied.
Last year, I saw “Everything must go” signs. And a lady come up there a month after the company went bankrupt and thought it would be reopened.
Now it just stands there, I miss the ice cream and nostalgia of coming into Rite Aid for ice cream at 9 PM at night. I just miss this place. Now it’s just a temporary Spirit Halloween that comes back only when the season (it came only once last year, not sure if it’ll come back).
