Two midterms back-to-back today. Both had their good sides, but really bad sides. Let's not speak of this day ever again.

On a good note, I have finally spent the mere seconds it takes to take down the summer rankings, to be replaced by fall rankings once I watch more than the one movie I've seen this month. But hey, this is the only time you'll hear that The Banger Sisters is the number one movie. The rankings are still in the archive if you're feelin' nostalgic.

Congrats to the Oakland A's for their Western Division Championship. Sometime in the future, the Orioles will win the AL East. Just you wait. And wait. And wait. And wait.

San Francisco will experience the 10th anniversary of Critical Mass tomorrow. On the last Friday of every month, bicyclists are encouraged to go ride during evening rush hour in the streets of the city. Things got into a fevered pitch in 1997 when the mayor denounced them. Soon after, thousands of bicyclists were hitting cars, stopping at intersections, and even wanted to get onto the Bay Bridge. Now, things have quieted down. But with this milestone, expect things to get more crowded than it usually is.
