City Insider : Newsom gives KJ lots and lots of San Francisco treats


City Insider : Newsom gives KJ lots and lots of San Francisco treats:

"There's yet another development in the ongoing saga of Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson and his lost garment bag - and it involves an eye-popping array of 'We're sorry' gifts.
We told you earlier this week that Johnson lost his bag while helping an elderly man into a taxicab in Union Square - and then blogged that he would give Mayor Gavin Newsom his word nothing like this would happen in Sacramento.

Well, Newsom's aides not only recovered the bag, but found unnamed friends of the mayor to deliver it to Johnson personally in his Sacramento office. And, apparently to make sure all is forgiven (and maybe score a gubernatorial endorsement from the former NBA star?), Newsom tapped his business friends to put together a very, very nice gift basket."
