Well, I'm done and back at the hotel.  Hellacious time getting here last night, but I made it.  More on this later when I don't have to use this WebTV crap on the room TV.

Since you don't want spoilers, I won't tell you how I did.  You'll have to watch on April 27 to see.

Now, what should I do with my free evening in LA?  Any suggestions?  I wanted to try an In and Out Burger and I'd kind of like to see Venice Beach.  Stupid?

You should hook up with Limmo and Ash and go get ripped somewhere sleazy.

Ash is right about using the In 'n Out website to find locations, and is worth checking out.  Venice? If you're staying in Santa Monica, maybe.  In Hollywood, no.

Oh, wait.  Since the show is a Merv Griffin Production, you're probably staying at the B...... H......     In which case, there's an In 'n Out two miles west of you on Wilshire.  Cut north from Wilshire at...I think it's Weyburn, there's a Hollywood Video at the corner. It'll be a mile up on your right.  

I live about a mile beyond that, but I don't think I can break free tonight.  Kid and all.

Venice Beach is pretty near LAX.  Go see the Venice canals too.  Watch the sunset.  Oh, I wish I could describe where this place is that you should go eat a taco for me... I wish I was there.

Nah, I'm paying for my own accomodations, so the word is THRIFTY.

Also, I have a car.

Well, that puts a different face on things, then. I thought guests were put up at Merv Griffin's fabulous Beverly Hilton.  Never mind.  

Check your email.

I don't know, it's not particularly balmy out tonight.  The Pier is a small amusement park at the end of a, y'know, pier.  The Third Street Promenade is a cool outdoor mall, but it would be lame to direct a visitor to a mall, wouldn't it?

On the other hand, you could go see:

Elvis Costello at the House of Blues
X at the Key Club
B.B. King at the Wiltern Theatre
Lewis Black ( from The Daily Show ) at the Comedy and Magic Club in Hermosa Beach.  

If you're in the mood for nothing more than a movie, there's a place called The Bridge which is literally a mile north of LAX on Sepulveda, in the Howard Hughes Promenade.  You could see Return of the King on an IMAX screen.  

That's all I can do for ya, gotta go.

I think Limmo underestimates the fascination that just walking around any part of LA can have for those of us from back east. You could go indoors and see Lewis Black anywhere.  Go outside and be in California!

And, the weather report says it's 62 in LA right now.  This is not balmy?  In February?  Oh my, you Californians clearly have no idea how lucky you are.

I just want to say to Limmo and Ash i'm ashamed of you.  If any of you fine people come anywhere near Houston I'll be there for you to show you a good time, help you in anyway I can, and try to make your visit as pleasurable as possible.  That's a promise.

Well, I don't know about Ash, but I pretty much get one night a week to play.  That's Thursday, when I get together with my bandmates to drink a bit and bump into our instruments.  So my wife pretty much knows she's got the girl for the night.  

Beyond that, I need, y'know, clearance.  And if I'm going to say to her watch Audrey for me, I'm gonna go hang with someone I only know from the message board for that online comic strip that I post on, I'm gonna have to give her a little advance warning.  

So, if any of you are going to be in L.A., I'd love to meet you, but I need a heads-up first, so I can clear the date and figure out something fun to do.  This includes Jough, who, if he still plays guitar, is welcome to join in on drinking/instrument-bumping when he's out here in two weeks.

Hey, August, are you still going to be in LA tonight?  This is my way of finding out if you've won or not without actually asking.

Yeah, I'm sorry LA people, I kinda came on strong.  Not many people are as spur of the moment impulsive as I am.  Also I got to thinking about it today and August didn't exactly pursue a meeting with you either.  So, you know, he might have wanted to be left alone anyway for all we know.  Shit he's probably right now laid up in a Chinese whore house snorting his Jeopardy winnings off an asian cuties ass.  Or perhaps (more likely, but boring), since he's a midwesterner, he just didn't want to impose on you fellas and was waiting for an invitation.
