Wow, it’s been a rockin’ rollin’ series of days. Will summarize high points of my days in Californ-I-A. Worked 14 hours a day. Slept 3 hours a night. But those who work hard play hard, so have also:

• Rode in a stretch Escalade, P-I-M-P bay-bee!
• Visited Mann’s Chinese theatre where Johnny Depp felt up my arse (pictures to follow in several days, forgot to bring my camera cable) and I saw the fattest Catwoman I’ve ever seen in my life.
• Enjoyed the best prix-fixe dinner at Porterhouse Bistro - completely recommend it and it’s an amazing deal to boot. The water tastes suspect though. After dessert they put out huge beehive-looking pale green spun cotton candy, with candles burning in the center. I am not sure if it was just supposed to be a centerpiece, but I ate half of it anyway.
• Saw a homeless Mexican jerking off on a street corner, in front of an old video rental shop.
• Visited The Standard, a famous bar. Had to bribe the bouncer 80 bucks to let us in (it was packed) - being a bouncer in LA seems to be a pretty profitable profession. The bar was tres interesante, they have huge Hershey kiss shaped pods with huge holes in them that open to reveal a round bed-like cushion inside. Walked by several to see some serious pre-fornication action, some of it guy-on-guy or girl-on-girl. Whoa.

My hotel room here faces the ocean - we are about six or seven blocks away from it. My balcony is huge, maybe 10 feet by 10 feet. Killer.
