Happy Valentine's!

Valentine's Day. Good or bad - it's here this year directly after Friday the 13th.

It's my belief that if you're single in autumn - you should NOT get back on the dating wagon from October's Sweetest Day (by the way, what kind of bullshit holiday is that?) to February's Valentines. That got you past the holidays and you would avoid the pressure of either expecting something from any new beau (even one you only went out with once) or wondering if you should buy something for whomever you happened to be dating.

It makes me sad now when I see the Valentines produced for the young 'uns. They are all based on TV shows or other generic product nonsense. Some might be funny - but they aren't the same as the now seemingly antique ones that had sentiment without corporate brand promotion.

Ahhh - I am dating myself. No pun intended.

If you have a special someone - do something thoughtful. And have a good night ;)

Rainy Day LA

And a pretty cold one too. Hail sprinkled our porch while gusty winds howled and blew the tarp off a huge bldg lying in wait to be finished when the economy changes. Too bad they didn't realize it sooner and never started - then we still coulda had an uninterrupted mountain view. I knew things had stopped when "La Cucaracha" didn't play three times a day outside my house - that's the announcement when the Mexican taco truck swings by. It moved on to a condo a couple of streets over.

I have to say - that in our neighborhood - the food comes to you: a myriad of taco trucks (the Korean one with bulgogi is all the range on twitter now - hundreds of people show up!), I had the BEST chicken quesadilla ever at the fancy one with seats and track lighting outside the subway stop at Vermont/Wilshire - nothin' like it after a couple of drinks! And there are men pushing ice cream carts who ring a little bell to let you know they are passing by (I think I wrote about this already :) AND women who make bacon-covered hot dogs by bus stops. It's a sin that something that smells soooooooo good is sooooooooooooooooooooo bad for you! And then there's all the produce they sell on the sidewalk - although that can be hit or miss. Same with the candy/produce trucks that move from street to street.

Still, pretty cool. When you're hung over or feeling lazy or wanting an ice cream on a hot day - just wish and it will arrive... Ah - if only my script sale were that easy.

Vimeo vs. YouTube

I just learned today that Vimeo is the new YouTube.

So like Friendster was replaced by MySpace was replaced by Facebook - will everyone shift? Or is YouTube's hold too strong?! Stay tuned.

And enjoy this video sent by my friend Aaron. It's super cool!

HILARIOUS Journey Remake - Frame for Frame with Wigs!

This has been on youtube for months, but I just noticed when Bruce posted it on Facebook.

Super funny! Makes you miss the 80's and the art school + theatrics + overwrought drama videos had back then.

Note - the Steve Perry guy looks more like Josh Homme of "Queens of the Stone Age" than Perry, but the crunched mullet wig is priceless as is "The Flock of Seagulls" hair on the chick going her "Separate Ways" in white pumps and a tight skirt.
