Admittedly Kev this ReedGate is an issue that pales into comparison to some of the other big picture stuff (though it does, as many have pointed out, exemplify the inanity of some of his staff member'...

Yeah, nuclear energy is an interesting proposal. But who wants nuclear waste in their city? Just ask Yucca Mountain opponents. For as sneaky as he might be, T. Boone Pickens might be on to something...

As I life-long Dodger fan -- watching team after team fail too often at opportune times -- I too am tempted to drift toward fatalism. But I also don't see the point of it. Why the rush to declare the ...

Yes, it should read 112 days, not 475. Thanks for keeping us on our toes. And, Ziggity, McCain has been to SoCal twice in the past month. L.A. did not make it on the itinerary for both visits. Of co...

Actually Carla, Obama has secured the nomination in the most basic way: it is securely his. He has not been nominated, but the nomination, for all intents and purposes, is his....

Quite right, coreyander!...

So, my main reason for doing these guides is not to sway people one way or another but to provide some impartial background so people can make an informed decision. Clearly the LAist community is pr...

Word, Lindsay. By most standards of the definition, I do not consider myself wealthy at all, but budgeted enough to make payments every month for a car that carries with it certain benefits. Yes to ...

The City of Burbank is pretty to hip to people's complaints. They will listen and try to work with the community, but their hands are tied sometimes. They get tons of complaints every day, most about ...

raul, I agree that I hope this does not tear the party about, but Obama did not lose the primary by a 'good margin.' He lost by five percentage points and received four less delegates. Hardly a thumpi...

Way to represent the Republicans, Jeannete! But, you forgot to mention McCain's tax-payer funded trip to the Middle East that is nothing more than a thinly disguised jaunt to bolster his foreign polic...

I was just saying that the feds were on to him because he was trying to hide his money, not because of prostitution. They, of course, found out what why he was hiding his money, but that did not come ...

Apparently, the feds started investigating Spitzer because of suspicious money transfers which agents originally thought were bribes the gov was trying to hide. It was only then that they found out he...

I would gladly trade in an overpriced coffee at Urth for an overpriced pastrami sandwich at Canter's....

A Guttenberg musical would be the shit! I would pay dearly and take out a loan so I can pay even more dearly for a Short Circuit/Police Academy musical. Sgt. Johnny 5...coming to a stage near you....

For the sake of the world Jan 09 can't come soon enough. For the sake of my funny bone, I'll miss that Crawford son of a bitch. Obama/Clinton/McCain will not be nearly as funny in such a gratifyingly ...

1. Before the strike was a different story. Clinton was ahead and the Democratic campaign wasn't in its last throes. The stakes are different now. 2. Obama has no reason to complain about the slight b...

Rosewood, Vedder's west coast concerts are, by and large, not benefit fundraisers. I believe all eight of his shows are sold out, but some tickets might still be left via a Tickemtaster auction where...

True bzilla, but this isn't Pearl Jam proper. This is just Vedder. How much does one man need to wail away for 2 hours and, more interestingly, how much would someone pay to hear one man play?...

It was a team effort, Carrie! Zach helped out big time. Thanks Zach!...
