7 Reasons to Love L.A.
Next time your uncle and aunt are in town skip the usual Hollywood Boulevard shenanigans. The Walk of Fame and Mann's Chinese Theater are just as exciting as they look on Google Images. Instead take them to Pincher's Liquor and crush their spirits with these unusual murals.
They can get great photographs in front of the stars of yesteryear, like: Marilyn Monroe ("I heard she did a nude photo spread once just like Lindsay Lohan did!"), Ray Charles ("loved him in Miami Vice"), Woody Allen ("he still alive?"), Bob Marley ("I like that one song"), W.C. Fields ("Who?"), and Alfred Hitchcock ("Oh I love him on Project Runway!") are all rendered by M-BW in typical bespectacled manner.
If that doesn't work, you can do what I do: drive them around Beverly Hills and point at random houses and make up which celebrity lives there. They'll never know any better and when they get home they'll tell all their co-workers about Jennifer Aniston's great lawn decorations.

I like how they captured the influence Madonna has on Marilyn Monroe.
If you wanna see even worse, drive up Argyle to Franklin. At the underpass at the traffic light, there is a storage space with a painted wall of John Wayne, an Indian, Fatty Arbuckle, Louise Brooks (with Alice Cooper eye makeup) and a laughing bearded man that after months of rush-hour red light traffic, I realized was Yakov Smirnov. Yes.
Ps. "PINCHERS LIQUORS" is a great name. Do they have a big lobster logo?
