Just called them, and they're open RIGHT FREAKIN' NOW! So I'm guessing they'll be open tonight, too. BTW, the number listed on the internet as theirs is actually that of Chevy's in Burbank.

Hmmm... so tired. But it's not a bad idea actually.

Yes it was Alereck. Thanks for mentioning it.

As per Bob's...
How about next week. Not up for it this evening.
I left my Kidneys somewhere in Malibu.

Wife went out for girl's night out. So I'm with the two little kids tonight. Next week sounds good, though.

In the meantime, Noah and I are watching TV news and listening to the helicopters circle overhead for the medium speed chase going on right now along Riverside in Studio City. Why these numnuts (try to) run from radios and multiple helicopters I don't understand. But if I ever get in a similar situation, seeing as how my driving record is pretty much Fked at that point, I'm making a top speed Cahuenga to PCH run along Mul.

Was waiting at the light from Coldwater onto Mulholland tonight, when a glorious older car (looked like a Gazelle--remember when one of those was parked in the Burbank airport?) pulled up next to us. Who was the driver? Jay Leno! But, alas, I was too slow with the wit and power window to invite him for a romp along the Race Course.

Ask him to race back to his garage, then let him barely win. Maybe you'll get a tour.

Here's some video I took on New Year's from the fender mount on my car.
Wish the extension could have been a bit further out, but oh well.
Some beautiful scenery, cool lights in a tunnel, and the ocean off PCH.

All the really good stuff happened after my camera ran out of memory space.

from MIRRC.

Well, if you would stop swearing at and flipping off cops as you drive by, maybe you could post some videos for once.

Post it up, Sidney. It's great to see pics; I know what I saw on the drive, but it's nice to see what other people saw.

It's another beautiful day in SoCal. I did a loop through Stunt/Piuma/Mulholland Hwy on the motorbike this morning.

I saw it too... and I gave him a stern "talking to".
