It's rivalry week and a cursory view of our blogroll shows the Trojan/Bruin war rages on. Boi From Troy is, obviously, almost all USC all the time this week while Loteria Chicana and Ultratart both wax nostalgic with dreams of past glory.
Caroline on Crack wants you to visit Hunky Santa at the Beverly Center. Hunky Santa? What, no Hot Hannukah Harriett dancing the horah for the lovers of ladies?

Blogs are publishing! Left Coast Breakdown is announcing the video release of Straight Acting and Dodger Thoughts published a Best of collection from their blog. That's a good enough excuse for us to plug LAist's own Adrienne Crew who just released Blogosphere and Paul Davidson and his The Lost Blogs which doesn't hit shelves until next year (but is wonderfully advertised in the sidebar right now).
And, finally, 8763 Wonderland gave us a nice compliment in this post but, Rodger, why you gotta be bringing up old shit? We thought the LA Blog War of the Capulets and Montagues was over.
