• Posted Please Excuse Us As We Do Some Site Maintenance to News
  Hello, Appeal readers! If you are reading this post, that means we're dead! JUST KIDDING. It means we're doing some long-overdue site maintenance, and that the Appeal as you know it might not be working very well. Yes, you comedian. Worse than usual. Hence the maintenance. Anyway, if this post is up, we're not updating the site -- but that doesn't mean that we're off the clock. Please head over to our Tumblr, at sfappeal.tumblr.com for your Friday morning news, events, and culture. We'll be back in business soon, we promise. We'll let you know on the Tumblr, on Twitter, and on Facebook. Thanks for reading -- if it weren't for all of you, we wouldn't be doing well enough to need maintenance! See you back here later today.
