San Francisco suffered a huge zombie outbreak yesterday evening. Sources report that among the many victims were subway passengers, Scientologists, and iMacs.

More from LaughingSquid.com and Declan McCullagh. The flash mob was a creation of the friendly folks at eatbrains.com.

From CNet: It may be worth noting that the Westfield Mall and Disney security tried to bar the zombies from entering, but Apple store security did not. In fact, salespeople were jostling one another for a position where they could take the best photo of the zombies (or themselves with the zombies, or their brains being eaten by the zombies).

In the wake of the "MacArthur Maze Meltdown", all Bay Area public transit will be free Monday, in hopes of reducing what is expected to be unbearably bad traffic. So, if you were thinking about going up to the City or down to San Jose for the Sharks' playoff game, I'd say this is as good a reason as any to make a day trip out of it. If you have no clue what this is all about, read the linked article or check out the accompanying picture.

This weekend, I took the Caltrain up to San Francisco to visit my aunt and uncle. Saturday evening, we dined (with great beer, I might add) at Walzwerk, an East German restaurant, and then got up the next morning and headed to Golden Gate Park to visit the fantastic de Young Museum, which showcases collections of American art from the 17th through the 20th centuries, and art of the native Americas, Africa, and the Pacific.

Completed in 2005 and sheathed entirely in copper and brass, the building is meant to blend into its Golden Gate Park surroundings as the copper oxidizes and turns green with age.
