City Sewers' Message: Don't Even Think About Pouring Gravy Down Drain

Turns out the city's sewers are clogged with your kitchen grease just like your arteries will be after imbibing all that gravy tomorrow. This causes a bunch of back-ups and overflows into the streets and even the bay. You don't want to kill a seagull with your gravy now, do you? So, SFGreasecycle would like to remind you to store your cooking fat, gravy, and grease in a container until it solidifies and then throw it in the compost bin, not down the sink. Better yet, drop it off at one of the city's Thanksgiving grease drop-off points until Sunday, listed on SFGreasecycle's Web site here, so your leftover gravy can be turned into biofuel to power the city's fleet.

Preaching over. We'll leave you with a joke that a pun-loving reporter sent us this morning. Feel free to plagiarize it to impress your Thanksgiving guests: 

"I heard Jerry Brown isn't celebrating Thanksgiving this year."

"Oh yeah? What's he celebrating?"

"ThanksGavin."
