I have a cold I'm stuck at my computer, though I may go to the Brewery tomorrow for the artwalk. Browne Wow, both of these things are so not in my world I can’t even comment, but I will.

I just moved to Studio City from Glendale to get away from this Death Star. But I would love a little metro action to the Ravine. Can we just call this a wash…

I made a mistake, turned down this street, and got stuck staring at the Americana on Brand. I pray they do something to alleviate the intense, terrible traffic. They have made that area of Glendale 15X worse than say, the intersection of 3rd and Fairfax or Fairfax and Beverly. If they do nothing, nobody will be able to go to Rick Caruso's disgusting wet dream of capitalistic extravagance. PS I hate the Cheesecake Factory with a Satanic passion.

I live less than a mile from a Goldline station, but I still don't think I can get there from here. One might think that Frank McCourt isn't all that interested in Metro bringing fans to his stadium. After all, he's raping every car that drives through the gate for $15 just to park. (Don't even get me started on $31 for tickets all the way up on the Reserved deck, or $11 for a beer, etc.) Gotta be the lack of Metro service to the ballpark.

It may actually turn out to be something pretty good. I mean if the folks at Westfield hated it so bad to fight it the way they did it must have some potential to be a crowd please. The lack of metro to Dodger stadium is inexcusable. I’ll wait to pass judgement on A@B. It may actually turn out to be something pretty good.
