One thing I don't like about LA is its lack of green space.

What are you talking about? Griffith Park was on fire just today!

No sky goats though. That I'm aware of.

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

Absolutely! thursday is free day at Huntington. I'm getting tickets tomorrow to go.

I'd love to go! I'll try to call you or email you to get the deets.

And ita, the botanical gardens at UCLA makes for a nice walk, esp when there's enough wet to fill the wee creek. We've taken the kids more than a few times, hell, used to go all the time when we were kids as well.

There's also UCLA's Japanese garden, which is hidden away up in Bel Air and was free last I went, but you need to call ahead to reserve parking. Would certainly reward you for bringing along the camera.

Are they going to use LEDs for lighting?

They totally should! But the fuel should be Unleaded.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The truth is out there... um... somewhere....

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Actually, the club I went to in Vegas (not the Double Down) used fresnel-style cans with a bunch of LEDs in them - they looked kind of like LiteBrites, but they were effective at getting a color cast without making the stage too bright (or too hot). The LEDs were only positioned on what would be the proscenium arch (have to be close, LEDs don't have much throw), and the rest were standard instruments. It was pretty cool. I thought. I was also in Vegas and had already drank a goodly portion of a Warp Core Breach and a Borgsphere, so my judgment could have been suspect. It happens. But I remember being very excited about the LED lights at the time.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I just had to write that your Vegas stories and pictures makes me wanna go there.

And I never had a thing for Vegas. Ever. Until now.

Also, timelies.

It's the kind of place that I can really only be in for about 48 hours. Any more than that, and I start getting way cranky/depressed. Its reason for being is completely artificial, and that makes some deep part of me jumpy. (Also, I don't really gamble, so that part is lost on me. Perkins can speak to that part.)

But, as a way to blow off some steam, see good friends, make new friends, see crazy rock shows, watch roller girls, and stay out way too late? It's brilliant.

Also, hi!

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

Japanese garden! Oh, if there were a chance to draw there...how lovely. Someone please work it so that I can take some time off before getting a decent gig. And that if I haven't been these places by the two separate (yeah, Kat) times my parents come visit in the next month or so we can prop each other up and go looksee.

Yes, that, but I couldn't really write it because I never was there so I can't judge. Also, I don't (really) drink.

Also, hi!

Hi!
