THE PEOPLE I KNOW FROM LA COME IN THE NEATEST LITTLE PACKAGES.

THE ONE THING I REALLY HATE ABOUT CAB DRIVERS IN SAN FRANCISCO IS TIPPING THEM. NOT SO MUCH THE MONEY PART (THOUGH THAT'S SOME OF IT), BUT MORE FOR THE FACT THAT THEY NEVER APPRECIATE HOW MUCH YOU GIVE THEM. YOU CAN GIVE THEM $5 OR $.50 AND THEY ALWAYS THANK YOU JUST THE SAME ... SHEEPISHLY.

I USED TO GET CRAZY ABOUT THE IDEA THAT I LIVED IN THE SAME STATE AS MORRISSEY. THEN JUST TODAY I REALIZED I LIVE ABOUT 1/2 AN HOUR FROM RICHARD RAMIREZ, CHUCK MANSON, AND SCOTT PETERSON (DREAMBOAT!!! J/K ... SORTA.)
