"The guys on the streets have only one tool to relieve the stress," said Cohen, "and it's humor."

It's a big, big story here now... The 49ers did something similar; some people should just not have access to videocameras, for their own good.

this quote is choice, too:

"For many years I have devoted much of my time in making videos to increase positive public opinion of out [sic] officers as well as to raise the moral [sic] of our officers. I believe this was accomplished, however, I think that this is where the road ends."

Andy - I wrote to you and...your email address isn't real, is it? I have a question for you.

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:26 (nineteen years ago)

SHOOT!!

I put it somewhat in context, on the East Bay thread!:

Say something nice about El Cerrito

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:34 (nineteen years ago)

is it drawbridge or the mysterious east bay wall you want to find?

andy --, Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:41 (nineteen years ago)

WALL

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:42 (nineteen years ago)

Read my informative primer on the mysterious walls:

andy --, Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:45 (nineteen years ago)

I did!

THAT IS WHY I AM ASKING YOU

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:46 (nineteen years ago)

I want to see a video of Adam and Andy dancing about the Wall.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:47 (nineteen years ago)

Could you perhaps give me more of a pointer than "In the barren, dusty hills to the east of the San Francisco Bay"?

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:47 (nineteen years ago)

supposedly this video exists somewhere online. please please please someone get links! this could be reno 911 hilarious.

heywood jablomi (heywood), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:50 (nineteen years ago)

There are short clips in the first link.

Mayor of Dutchtown (nordicskilla), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:51 (nineteen years ago)

but it's mysterious.

andy --, Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:54 (nineteen years ago)

i read about those walls somewhere else once and wanted to hunt them down (or maybe I saw them on Bay Area Backroads. With the old host!). I still don't know where they are. Whatever. There's a wall behind my apartment building. See one wall you've seen them all.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 8 December 2005 17:56 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, i saw those clips on the news last nite, but i want the whole thing!

heywood jablomi (heywood), Thursday, 8 December 2005 18:00 (nineteen years ago)

There's supposed to be some walls right in Tilden Park, but I couldn't find them. The ones I photographed in that article are in the Sunol Regional Wilderness, which I accessed by a dirt road behind Ohlone College... just down the road from the actual Mission on Mission Blvd. in Fremont. That said, it was a bitch to find them and I ended up jumping a fence onto private property. I could point you in the right direction, though.

When I went looking, I wrote to KTVU's Health & Science Editor John Fowler... he wrote me back that day and told me where to search! He's the real deal man.

andy --, Thursday, 8 December 2005 18:00 (nineteen years ago)

KTVU's Health & Science Editor John Fowler

he is always referred to this way as well. I think he may have had his name legally changed to "KTVU's Health & Science Editor John Fowler."

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 8 December 2005 19:03 (nineteen years ago)

I have a personally autographed photo of Dr. Dean Edell.

A buddy's girlfriend used to be his nanny.. I was told the doc had rager nudist parties at his house, and ECSTASY was consumed!

andy --, Thursday, 8 December 2005 19:06 (nineteen years ago)

Ewww the thought of Dean Edell naked is terrifying sober. I can't imagine what a bummer it would be if I was on drugs.

anyway these videos are stupid but I think the rhetoric is just a tad overblown.
