San Francisco Fish Story
| Meet
William Dawson, man at the helm of Seafood Suppliers, a fish
wholesaler on San Francisco’s Pier 33. Steeped in the tradition
and hardships of the sea, fiercely proud of his doughty firms’
high reputation and beloved by his hard-working crew because he
works just as hard as they do, Dawson feels like the little Dutch
boy with his finger in the dike as he fights on behalf of his
beloved fish business. Go to Article |

the San Francisco County Transportation Authority took the
initiative to write the Golden Gate Transit Bus District with her
rather unflattering thoughts about ferries. It prompted a
read-only-wearing-asbestos-gloves response from Marina V. (and don’t
you forget it) Secchitano, the tigress that serves as Regional
Director of the Inland Boatmen’s Union, an affiliate of the
Longshoremen. |
