Supreme Sized Marriage News

Supremely_great_news

Thursday turned out to be a very exciting day, with the California Supreme Court striking down the barriers to marriage for same-sex couples! Of course, the real work begins as we must all work together to fight attempts to ruin the State Constitution. Now if only the right to marry included equal access to the federal immigration rights for same-sex couples.

I encourage everyone to donate generously to Equality California.

A Special Mother's Day

Hands down the ugliest store in Westwood Village is Ahhh's (or as I think of it, Ewww's) with Urban Doubtfitters running a close second. Lucky for some, they are right across the street from each other so you can hop from from trash pit to another. The pic above is a recent sampling of their store window for Mother's Day. And yes, that onesie actually says "My Mom is hot AND SINGLE!"

Westwood Ugly Photo Album

Westwood Ugly

Maybe it's because of those images of a newly sprouted neighborhood from the 1920's, I always think of Westwood Village as somewhat charming or refined. But in reality it is a rather ugly collection of overpriced crap, extortion deli's, and - wether it be a bank or a cafe - typically bad service. Westwood Village is caught in a downward spiral of lousy property maintenance and ill-conceived development. So I am starting a new photo album of all the ugly crap I see everyday in Westwood. So now you can laugh and cry along with me.
