A Little Tap Dancing By The City Public Information Officer

So Tonya Durrell, representing the Public Works Office on Project Main St. Jackhammer, did respond to a request from a Higgins resident to explain why the work was necessary during the 9pm - 5am timeframe (see previous post). BUT she neglected to answer the core question and instead did a good job of filibustering [...]

The Midnight Cacophony On Main St. Continues…

The Month of the Jackhammer continues on Main St. next to the Higgins building, from 9pm until 5am daily. Even though I am not directly over the construction, it echos off the nearby new LAPD and rattles my windows- last night from 2am - 4am it was obnoxiously loud. I figured we just [...]

LA Weekly Does Great Story Just In Time For Elections

The LA Weekly, particularly Patrick Range McDonald, has been churning out excellent stories lately- the expose on Tony Villarwas throughly researched and exposed the Mayor as spending 11% of his time on city business.
This week, the focus is on the 15 LA City Council members- the highest paid City Council in the nation, at $178,179 [...]

Attending My 2nd Downtown Protest Tomorrow

Purely for professional reasons I will be attending the CA NORML (National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) Protest of the Federal War on Medical Marijuana- scheduled for Noon at the Federal Courthouse (312 N. Spring St but protest is at Main St. entrance).
My current client, who owns 3 medical marijuana clinics, is [...]

Another Reason I Like Barack And The First Lady-Elect

(Paraphrased from several articles- see main link below)
President-elect Barack Obama has yet to attend church services since winning the White House earlier this month, a departure from the example of his two immediate predecessors.
On the three Sundays since his election, Obama has instead used his free time to get in workouts at a Chicago gym. [...]

The Gays Throw A Great, No-H8 Rally

Yesterday was the National day for City Hall “No on Proposition 8″ rallys, and downtown Los Angeles had a well-attended, and well-organized rally (in all fairness, attended by many straight folks too). On my 8am White Dog walk around City Hall, the steps were already full of protestors, and there were 2 stages set-up [...]

My “No On 8″ Day Downtown

Yesterday, Sunday the 2nd, was a great day. It rained rather gently in the morning, and made my morning White Dog walk very enjoyable. I was trying to decide what to do at mid-morning: hit the gym, take Isis to Lofty Dog Indoor Dog Park, or eat breakfast and sleep some more. [...]

Causecast Throws Election Night Party At The Edison

If you’re looking for a fun place to watch the election results on a historical night, head over to The Edison for some fun- The Edison opens at 5pm with it’s usually happy hour specials (40% off on all drinks), and at 8pm the Cousecast party begins ($5 donation suggested, 100% of which is donated [...]

There’s An Ugly March Coming To My ‘Hood

If you’ve read my blog for any amount of time, you know I get annoyed with the street closures and “take overs” of City Hall grassy areas by marches for (insert country name here) Independance Days, or Stop The War marches, etc. But I just heard of a march that’s coming in a couple [...]

BonJovi Joins Hillary At The Edison

I just recieved an e-mail to the “normal” Edison e-mail marketing list, announcing:
“Come Be a part of History at the The Edison Saturday October 4th ”
“Apearances by Jon Bonjovi & Richie Sambora and other Special Guest”
Is there a lack of interest in this event, as it seems a little late for this announcement. And [...]
