It's all-Greek-letter-kids-dress-like-Santa-and-get-bombed-by-11-a.m.-weekend.

Very seasonal. Like stringing popcorn.

Oh, and I almost forgot: LACMA (LA County Museum of Art) borrowed my car for their show of 60's California design.

I actually walked the entire length of Hadrian's Wall about five years ago. It was a fantastic trip. I must have taken close to 2000 pictures, but unfortunately they're all on a computer that's borked at the moment (something exploded inside :shock: ). Same goes for any pics I have of my locale, but my house is in this picture :

I got to ride in one once. My favorite auto design.

HA! I wish. No, I was just joking. That was at the LA Art Museum.

One of my two cars just got totalled. I'm broke. If I had an Avanti I'd sell it.

So I was on this shoot, and I realized we were in an old Masonic Temple of some kind. "Temple?" Whatever the Masonic places are called.

I was wandering around upstairs, curious, and found this room filled with photos, going way back, of all the grand Poobahs, or whatever they're called in the Masonic world, for this particular place.

And they were all African American.

I had no idea there were African American masons!
