My two favorite areas in the city for dining and nightlife--Chinatown and North Beach--are separated by a few streets full of strip clubs, adult bookstores, and adult toy stores. If you are with your family and walking the city, use caution here. If you are alone or with a group of guys, this might be a choice place to stop! Most of the questionable establishments are along Broadway Street with a few just around the corner on Kearny. These include Larry Flynt's Hustler Club ("the hotbed of sensual hospitality" with a "lavish lunch buffet"), Broadway Showgirls, Hungry I Club, Roaring 20s ("Playboy Girl Love"), House of Ecstasy, Double Pleasure, and the ever-popular Big Al's Adult Bookstore (where the sign reads "Number One G Spot For Bachelorette Party Supplies"). And no, I've never been to any of these sinful establishments, I just like to drive by and snap pictures.

People to Avoid: Don't Boo Barry Bonds

Californians generally embrace individual freedoms. With the Castro, semi-legalized drugs, political protests, a huge and welcome homeless population, anything goes, right?!? WRONG! One freedom you should not exercise in San Francisco is voicing verbal displeasure over Barry Bonds. Sure, he's always been a punk, and yes he admitted to taking "the cream" and "the clear" which are steroids, making him a fraud and a cheater, but don't mention that to San Franciscans who are infatuated with baseball's new home run king. Don't bring up that fact that he gained one inch in height, 50 pounds in weight (mostly muscle) and an average of 20 home runs a year since he first supposedly took steroids... Their response? "Everyone else does it! Why not?" During the game, just after he broke the career home run record, I exercised my freedom to boo poor Barry Bonds, which I quickly discovered to be taboo, especially if you sit in the left field bleachers at AT&T park, just a few rows from the bloated slugger. I had one old guy with a mini-mullet get really upset, call me an a**hole, and defend Bonds with every breath for about two innings. Oh well, I continued to boo anyway, much to his displeasure. Unfortunately Bonds homered on this chilly night by the Bay, but he also dropped a line drive that hit him square in the glove, proving his decline in ability over the years.
