Primate Power

As I've mentioned before, San Francisco is awash in random events. Wandering the city streets wearing outlandish getups seems to be a favorite pastime.

So, I was not ALL that surprised to find out that the First Annual Great Gorilla Run was going to be hosted in Golden Gate Park. Basically, people sign up, pay 100 bucks and get a full gorilla suit. Then, they run 7K through the park, looking a fool, all to raise money to save the real gorillas in Africa and elsewhere.

Of course, this made for extremely delightful viewing on a recent Sunday morning.
