Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What about Olvera Street?

What's on Olvera? Coffee and the like?

I almost just talked her into coming to Westwood, but her schedule doesn't quite allow, darnit.

Apropos of nothing, NPR has a great interview with Seth Green up.

Oh there's an Olvera Street-centric Web Page too. They have an entire page on the History of Chocolate.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Apropos of nothing, NPR has a great interview with Seth Green up.

Can't listen at work, but the exciting bit for me was surfing from there to sethgreenonline.com, which said that Greg the Bunny may make it's way back to TV! Hurray!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Can any LAista or person familiar with said city tell me what there is to do around Union Station. I'm meeting a slightly neurotic family member there this afternoon, and I'd rather we not wing it too much.

I was going to suggest Olivera Street as well. There's also supposed to be a nice restaurant inside Union Station, but I've never been there. And another LA landmark, Phillipe's, is nearby. Claims to be the first French dip sandwich.

Oh. Traxx?

Cool info. Shame I won't be able to stay even longer, but it sounds like it's worth a re-visit anyway.

God, I know so little about So Cal. Pathetic.

Off to the station!

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Just wanted to mention two things I found especially funny:

I know that, in old-fashioned systems of "science", the spleen was very important in the manufacture of rage. So, by losing her spleen, your friend may become a calmer person!

Ooh, that would make me so mad!

Except I couldn't get mad.

Which would make me even madder!
