Sunset Sail in the Bay from daniel jarvis on Vimeo.
Daniel Jarvis, who, if we're lucky, is going to start doing shooting video for this very blog, decided to take his camera out on a boat this weekend. Lucky for you, he didn't put SNL in the soundtrack. Enjoy.

If you answered 52 seconds, you're just a hair faster than this industry dirtbag:
This amazing, 720p spectacle is brought to us by Blowing It In San Francisco, which after a mere 2 posts has established itself as a fine San Francisco blog. I mean, this is one epic find: it's some dude pissing outside of BENDER'S BAR AND GRILL while cars wiz past and pedestrians stroll by seemingly unaware. During the motherfucking day.
Who said the Mission can't keep it classy?

Nothing like a little bloodshed with Sutro in the background.

Video for Zach Hill's (Hella) “The Sacto Smile”. I think I need a girl like this in my life. Actually, come to think of it, I guess I've had girls like this in my life. Good times.

Be sure to stick around for the guy in the King's jersey outside of the Ferry Building.

San Francisco Independence Day set to The Downer Party from daniel jarvis on Vimeo.
Daniel Jarvis peeps us to his 4th of July moving picture show set to the music styling of The Downer Party. Makes me wish I had the requisite stupidity to drink and drive through the city of San Francisco*

Needless to say, I was inspired by the unabashed lawlessness on both ends of Treat St. last night: two simultaneous block parties of fireworks and alcohol with traffic not being let through on either end. Desperate to learn from these black belts of chaos, I asked one guy lighting off fireworks how they could get away with it, despite all the police driving by: “This is Mexico, they don't fuck with us.”
Anyway, be sure to turn up the video to HD because it looks like crap otherwise. Be sure to stick around for the grand finale.

SF Citizen hips us to what might be the best San Francisco time lapse I've seen to date. From David Yu:
My first attempted to take the time lapse photo recording study with the camera. The point of view from Yerba Buena Island to the San Francisco cityscape with bay bridge.
Date: July 2 2010
Time: 8:25pm to 9:25pm

While we at Uptown don't (openly) condone Bros Slitting Bros throats, we're happy to see a celebrity (albeit a C-lister) join us in the fight against the Axis of Ice. Daniel Tosh raises an interesting point that hadn't previously occurred to me; Smirnoff Ice is the new ZIMA. I'd like to see the retro ZIMA make a comeback and take its place next PBR as a hipster beverage.
Hat tip to Clark. Friends don't let friends Ice Bros.
EDIT: Obligatory addition of 90's throwback ZIMA commercials.
