Dear Great Weather, Hi! We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for choosing to spend a little time here in LA today. Is there anything we can get for you? Cold drink? Hors d'oeuvre? If you stick around through the weekend we can promise that the ladies will spring from their homes wearing bikinis and the boys will take their shirts off. We like that you're here. We love it, in...

- Local Doc prescribed Anna Nicole methadone not only while she was eight months pregnant and also rode with her in the WeHo Gay Parade. My kind of doctor. Think he's single? - TMZ - Does Ashley Olsen live in such an isolated world that she doesn't know that it's no longer cool to call black people "Negroes", call women "toots", or wear fur coats? Leather, fine. But fur? Not so much - CityRag...

Who doesn't love Christopher Walken? Even though we've seen True Romance a gazillion times, if it's on Cinemax and it's getting near the scene where Walken and Dennis Hopper deliver their violent conversation, we'll pause our flipping because there's very little on tv better than that. In a play that reminds us of the scene in "Being John Malkovich" where Malkovich has gone through the wormhole and there are tons of Malkoviches everywhere, be...

Our pals over at Austinist have been doing a bang-up job of Internet sleuthing, Googling, and MySpacing to confirm over 500 bands that will play SXSW even though the Austin music festival refuses to cooperate. After taking last week off because we were sure SXSW would release their master plan, we now return as there seems to be no end in sight to the band list embargo. Many indie labels and some marquee acts...

#4, The Go! Team Some of us got LAist Editor Tony Pierce drizunk today to celebrate several LAist successes and one of us discovered that Tony hadn't written a "Best of 2006" list. When pressed, he admitted that it would be political suicide for him to espouse favorites. Blah blah blippity-blah. After several dozen Jager Bombs we got a list out of him. UCLA beats UCSB once again, biatches. See our editor's list after...

I have no idea what this movie is all about. All I know is it starts off with the monkey reading LAist and it runs over 9 minutes long. And it belongs as a 4:20 Video... don't you agree? video via oosoom...
