Comments for White Boy/White Dog Move To Skid Row http://skidrowdude.com Certified Beach Dude Moves To Downtown Los Angeles Tue, 22 May 2012 07:27:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 Comment on Lets Get This Going Again by skidrowdude http://skidrowdude.com/2012/01/04/lets-get-this-going-again/#comment-5847 skidrowdude Tue, 10 Jan 2012 02:08:17 +0000 http://skidrowdude.com/?p=1840#comment-5847 Hey James- thanks for checking in! Damn I miss the DTLA folks/scene. Summer was pretty good here- lots of bars/restaurants have "misting" units and huge fans on patios- I liked hanging out by river as that is a big plus here. But everyone said "very strange summer"- many 90+ degree days but less 100+ which was perfect. The wierd thing here is that hottest part of day is between 3 and 5pm, where in LA it's cooling / marine layer is rolling in. I came home from work most days and hit jacuzzi to help injured back, and I got so dark I was called an Indian and a Jamacain (LOL- "ya mahn"). And at night you got out in shorts to most places- like Miami or something (of course not "clubs"). So I survived. And now I'm hearing "very strange winter"- no rain for weeks but cold- I guess it's warmer when it rains. I'm putting up with it but remember how depressed I get when all the trees look like "sticks" w/ no leaves when I grew up in Midwest- at least I did not have to rake the leaves here- thank God. I may be here another 6 months or so if the "price is right"- stay turned! Hey James- thanks for checking in! Damn I miss the DTLA folks/scene.

The wierd thing here is that hottest part of day is between 3 and 5pm, where in LA it’s cooling / marine layer is rolling in. I came home from work most days and hit jacuzzi to help injured back, and I got so dark I was called an Indian and a Jamacain (LOL- “ya mahn”).

When Trees Turn Green It Is Cool! by skidrowdude http://skidrowdude.com/2011/04/10/wow-when-trees-turn-green-it-is-cool/#comment-4194 skidrowdude Sat, 16 Apr 2011 00:24:59 +0000 http://skidrowdude.com/?p=1749#comment-4194 Hey Detective J (or have you moved up again?)- keep downtown free of the gang-bangers so I can once again enjoy my dog walks. I live right in DT Sacto and it's honestly scarier here at night as I am near a homeless shelter and cheap hotel, plus a vacant street mall where 'bangers seem to like to think they're "scaring Whitey" LOL. I think only my dog saved me a couple of times, as they know I belong here too- I will walk anywhere. I've only seen cop cars twice since I've been here (a few Homeland Security vehicles too because of GOV stuff). You and LAPD make DTLA a GREAT F-ING PLACE TO LIVE! THANK YOU! I LOVE LA.

I wouldn't say moving "up"- except for geographically. SacroLAMEo is pretty boring, but I'm just here to work. Probably be back in LA just in time for The Must to open in Pershing Square- we'll have to have a drink and catch up. Stay SAFE!!! Hey Detective J!

I always knew you were "gov" and wanted to find out more. I just had a bad opinion of gov more from media than personal experience. Too bad me never met at Oragami :-( All I know is the gov employees I'm working with are just amazing. The one thing I do see about gov inefficiencies already though is that they will get to 80% done on something and run out of money. Then hire me 2 years later. That's where I'm at.
