405 / 101 Split At Rush Hour
Visitors constantly complain about LA traffic. They ask “how can you stand it?” I don’t even notice any more. It’s a fact life like humidity and mosquitoes on the east coast. I put up with it because the weather is good the view is nice and it suits me. LA may not be your cup of tea but I would appreciate it if you would stop trying to convince me that I should hate it.
Hollywood Cowboys
At certain times of the year I drive down Cahuenga Blvd just as the sun is setting. I often notice the shadow of this giant cowboy silhouette, which resides on top of the Laser Pacific building, projected on the wall of the Ren Mar studios across the street. www.flickr.com/photos/puck90/1411523354/in/photostream/
Many times I thought about taking a photo of it. I finally did.
A Laser Pacific employee who was loitering outside the building told me that these cutouts were on rooftops all over Hollywood. I haven’t noticed any others. I sense a project coming on…..
