May 3, 2007 -- KINDERGARTEN kids in ritzy L.A. suburb Calabasas have been coming home to their parents and talking about the "weird man" who keeps coming to their class to sing "scary" songs on his guitar. The "weird" one turns out to be Bob Dylan, whose grandson (Jakob Dylan's son) attends the school. He's been singing to the kindergarten class just for fun, but the kiddies have no idea they're being serenaded by a musical legend - to them, he's just Weird Guitar Guy.

Los Angeles Chief Says Inappropriate Force Used During Rally


Los Angeles' police chief said Wednesday some officers used inappropriate force when they fired rubber bullets into crowds that included children and wielded batons against demonstrators in an incident that marred an otherwise peaceful day of immigration rallies across the United States.

News footage aired Wednesday of the events from the day before showed police beating at least two television camera operators and shoving people who were walking away from officers. They also showed injuries from the rubber bullets, including images of a Hispanic man with a bleeding welt on his stomach.

I went to Sabor a Mexico at 8940 National Blvd. in West L.A. and was not very impressed. So unimpressed I didn't even snap any pics to use on my blog. The pic you see was from lvgoodfood. I ordered the chilaquiles with tomatillo sauce which were not bad but a little overpowered by the tomatillo sauce. The chilaquiles came with a side of refried black beans and this blogger likes his black beans whole. I also ordered the potato taco which was also very uninspiring. Maybe I have to go back on the weekend when they have $1 tacos on their patio but until then I will stick to East Los for my "Sabor a Mexico".

"What happened was, cancer of the salivary gland spread to my right lower jaw. A segment of the mandible was removed. Two operations to replace the missing segment were unsuccessful, both leading to unanticipated bleeding."

This is the War on Terror, the boardgame: A quality boardgame for 2 - 6 players, lovingly illustrated and politically correct (in a very literal sense). Playing it will bring out the nastiest, greediest, darkest, most paranoid aspects of your character. It's all great family fun. Everyone starts with the best intentions. Then things start to get cramped. Then you notice your neighbour has more oil than you. Before long, war is waged, nukes are dropped, revolutions are fought and terrorists are doing your dirty work, before turning on you...
