Moving requires bravery but John is not here. You may wish to try Linda Mar. |
Pacifica Tribune, "Wandering and Wondering"/John Maybury, 5/27/14. "Moving Madness".

Help find reporter John Maybury |
"As
a veteran of many moves in my misspent youth, I broke the pattern when I
moved to Pacifica
some 20 years ago. I began to slow down and stay put
for longer periods of time. I have moved only twice since I got here in
the early '90s (from Sharp Park to Park Pacifica to
Linda Mar).
So
it was a shock to my system recently when Leslie and I had to pack up
and move to a new house. I had forgotten how to deal with the chaos of
moving: address changes, purging possessions, packing boxes, hiring
movers, kicking dust bunnies around the house, losing sleep, getting
bruises and scratches on every extremity, trying to remember where
everything is (a futile exercise despite careful organization and
labeling of boxes), schlepping last-minute carloads of odds and ends
that somehow did not get packed in time for moving day.

Okay moving is somewhat chaotic, John. |
.... Ian Butler and his helper Joe (Bay Area Arborist Co-op)
trimmed, pruned, and groomed a stand of pittosporum trees that line our
new backyard, taking away three truckloads of greenwaste. We plan to
have Dave Martinez of Dig It landscaping "kill" our scraggly,
water-hogging lawn and replace it with drought-resistant native plants.
Dan Underhill took care of some plumbing issues around the new house,
and Rich Shafer of Granite Electric is scheduled to fix some of our
wiring and lighting.
We always say, "Shop locally." But after this move, now we really believe it. Local works."

Rumor has it Riptide has now been outsourced to Bangladesh.
It's a cover story. John is on assignment pursuing a lead. He's going to blow the roof off city hall!
He is chained to a light post in Vallemar to protest Caltrains fixing Highway 1.
@ 255 Len Stone chained to a light post? I guess Mary Ann is getting tough. Oh wait...
l3:25 . Maybury not Len Stone. Lennie is riding his skateboard.
Guess he really didn't love it here as much as he said. Back to Daly City John? Fair weather hippies. Maybe he'll rent rooms to Loeb and Bray.
Is there something in that Trib article that actually says he's left Pacifica? Plugged a lot of local businesses but mentions no other city.
He is probably the guy dropping all the cash in San Francisco and San Jose.
From his FB he moved to Moss Beach on May 20th
Good intel 531. Couldn't find anything in the article. Tunnel opens and away he goes.
So much for him loving Pacifica so much. Even the hippies and noobees are figuring out Pacifica is busted.
He wanted to use the new 92 - Hwy 1 interchange in HMB and avoid all the traffic in Pacifica.
The pings from the Indian Ocean was really John. He was on a small island and he had gas from eating all the banana's and coconuts.
