  • It's a sad fact of life as an LA driver that traffic cops can't be everywhere. That's because the arrogant and entitled drivers are everywhere, and they're getting away with murder. Wouldn't it be great if they could get caught just a little more often? If common decency won't stop them from making our lives hell, maybe a few Saturday afternoons in traffic school would. Unfortunately, there's little to stop them from pulling moves...

  • Whoever told you it's all happening at the Zoo was way off. If you live in Los Angeles, it's all happening at The Grove. In its short time on our city's cultural landscape, the Grove has become LA's focal point for events big and small, mainstream and offbeat, for hipsters and dweebs alike. There's almost always something going on. Of course, that means if you just want to pick up a t-shirt at the...

  • It's sweeps month, and you know what that means: FOX is rolling out new super-twisted reality shows, Jimmy Smits is back from the dead, and the local TV news is getting more shameless than ever in their efforts to get you to watch. We've come to expect the undercover Spring Break analyses and shameless exploitations of wedge issues like gay adoption around this time of year, but KNBC's latest may be a new low....
  • One of the best traffic flow ideas LA ever had were those rush hour parking restrictions that keep cars from stopping on major streets during peak hours. All around the city, on streets like Ventura, Wilshire, Pico and Los Feliz Boulevard, the rightmost lane of traffic turns from a parking lane to a driving lane from 7 to 9 am and 4 to 7 pm. These restrictions help keep traffic moving at times when...

  • Looking for a place to watch the election returns tonight? Citysearch provides a handy list of viewing parties in the LA area. Personally, we're headed to the Abbey for a free martini. We can't think of a better way to drown our sorrows toast to victory wait out the recount. Ah, democracy in action... Know of any other viewing parties in the area? Let us know in the comments....
  • The always-amusing marquee for the Tomkat Theater, the Arclight of gay porn on West Hollywood's Pawn Shop Row, has announced its choice for President (we think) with its latest presentation. While we're personally holding out to see whom Traci Lords endorses before we make up our minds, we applaud the Tomkat for featuring the work of "Not Into Bush Productions" at this crucial time, and we're sure "A Rim With a View" carries a...
