Can you see your favorite blogger? Yes, indeed, I’m the one with the wristwatch. San Miguel dorm, 1989-90, 7th Floor. UCSB.

Special thanks to Caryn over at art.blogging.la, who posted about the Invader-theft yesterday, as well as the cool cats over at visualresistance.org (my new favorite blog) who totally “get” how depressing it is when someone rips off cool street art. Blogging.la posted a mini-blurb of the situation here, reacting to that Klaxon-call over at flickr. […]

One of the coolest street art projects in Los Angeles is under serious attack. Anyone who knows me knows of my obsession with the art of the enigmatic French artist known as Invader. More than a year ago, my friend Sara and I picked up on his work and began an obsessive hunt for as […]

Dave recently switched from beer to wine. But as a long-time drinker, he makes the transition easily. Wine has twice the alcohol of beer, but it’s still half that of, say, Grey Goose. Still, he can put the stuff away, so it comes as no surprise to anyone that at Amoebapalooza last Sunday (which I […]

I haven’t been able to post this week. Since returning from SF, it’s been all about catching-up. That, and preparation. I’m pitching my new script to Maple Shade over at the Warner lot today. Then Threshold Entertainment tomorrow. Then I’m meeting with an independent director on Saturday regarding The Last Hit. He wants to make […]

Last Thursday I make the trek up to San Francisco. Rather than go into detail about the whole venture, I’ll offer you the two extremes and let you fill in the rest. The first pic is taken during the trip up. Were this drive competing in the Olympics in the “Most Annoying Thing Ever” event, […]

I’ve got work to do. I’m trying to assemble a cool mix disc and I’ve got very little time in which to do it. But I want to share four quick pics. the first is one I take on Sunday: Pretty much sums it up, no? I get a fix-it ticket for not having a […]

When Jason Bentley spins Mylo on Metropolis, one can’t help but start grinning. I blogged about “Destroy Rock & Roll” already. “In Your Arms” is even better.

Just thought you all might be interested in a few random snapshots. I’m on my dinner break on Wednesday. It’s rush hour. As always at this time of day there’s a ton of activity in the neighborhood. So I wander around in the ninety-degree heat and click away. This is looking down from the CNN […]

Two new posts today at LA-ist. I’ve been wanting to post that t-shirt thing forever, but I’ve been so busy I couldn’t get around to it. I’d told Joanna Contreras, the brain behind Red Star Ind., that I’d post about her place, but it took me so long to do so, I ended up expanded […]

Writer C.J. Cherryh says that “no rule should be followed off a cliff.” She refers here to the rules of writing and good grammar. But she also mentions this with respect to her own guidelines, some of which she conveys on this page. Good stuff. And a good reminder that though I’ve come a long […]

I love it when I get props from a beautiful person. You’re a sweetheart, Stacey!

I’ve been more or less silent around here lately. Sorry about that. I think this cartoon, taken from the pages of New Yorker (March 21, 1994,) sums things up rather nicely: Too many projects. And too many projects necessarily means choosing just one or two to focus on. Either that or a picking up some […]

It’s Friday and it’s a day off and I’m tying up all kinds of loose ends around here. Mostly it’s a day of working from home. I’ve got scripts to read, a script to write, a few posts to compose for LAist (including the one I just submitted about the intersection of Gardner and Sunset […]

Last night I had a prophetic dream. In this dream I was cycling in the Tour de France. It was a hot day. And I learned that the race is not that anywhere as gruelng as the media would like us to believe. I was surprised at how easily I overtook Lance. Especially on the […]
