california dreamin'...

A very quick, but productive, business trip to LA this week has me realizing there's never enough time to really soak in all that this city has to offer. Plus, there's always a great classic movie being screened somewhere in an awesome cinema, and that's never possible to fit into the schedule.

Nevertheless, I did get one celeb sighting this trip, and he's actually a native of Hell's Kitchen...Toxie, The Toxic Avenger
Even weirder than seeing Toxie on Ocean Ave in Santa Monica was actually catching him shouting out "I love you Lloyd!" to Lloyd Kaufman himself (mastermind behind Troma Entertainment). That was probably staged, but I dug it.

In other news, everyone seems pretty giddy over our new President elect, and with the exception of "the Mormans," everyone is pissed about Prop 8 going through. Last night, people took to the streets of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood to march in protest. Nothing like preaching to the converted. Must have been organized by the Human Rights Campaign.
