Choose Your Own Adventure (or Things to Do in the Mission)
Well, this makes it four posts in three days. Weird.
Anyway, if you find yourself in the Mission in the near future, you should try looking for these little stencils on the sidewalk. [Yes, the picture is the link to the post on SF MetroBlogs.]
I must say that I loved these books as a child - the classic Choose-Your-Own-Adventures, the Middle-Earth-themed knock-offs, all of them. Very engrossing.
Actually, I'll bet (little) kids would read more if you did this sort of thing online (where you could just click your choice as opposed to the tedious act of flipping around in a book). I call dibs on that idea. I'll call it Click-Your-Own-Adventure™. Unless, of course, that's too close to the original name for my intellectual property attorney, in which case I'll call it... I don't know, Click2Pick™ or something less dorky.
