Once Upon a Time in Mexico

April 11, 2006 by Tony Cohan1 Comment

"So what do you make of this?" said Xavier. I watched, from behind a cordon of yellow police tape, Antonio Banderas in a mariachi outfit, and Salma Hayek in far less, dangling from cables affixed to the rooftop of the Hotel San Francisco in San Miguel de Allende's central plaza, el jardin. Walkie-talkies crackled in Spanish and English. A utility van edged slowly past with a card taped to its windshield reading Once Upon A Time In … [Read more...]

Sam’s Anchor Cafe, Tiburon CA – April 2006

April 1, 2006 by DaveLeave a Comment

Sam's Anchor Cafe Tiburon, or simply known as "Sam's" is located right next to the San Francisco Bay in the very tiny town of Tiburon with stunning views overlooking Angel Island and San Francisco in the distance on a clear day. This is a happenin', hip place to eat especially on the outside deck for lunch during a warm day. On some busy weekends waiting time can be up to 2 hours for an outside seat on the deck! Without a doubt, our favorite … [Read more...]

Los Angeles, CA

by Dave · 13 Comments

Los Angeles anchors the heart of Southern California and LA is the 'King' here in the south land. International tourists who visit California often say to me, I visited Los Angeles and San Francisco, and I really didn't like Los Angeles, but San Francisco was so awesome; it is such a small city - easy to get around, manageable, picturesque etc. Well that is not what LA is about. To the casual visitor Los Angeles can be extremely overwhelming to … [Read more...]

LA Freeways, Los Angeles Freeways

by Dave · 64 Comments

Los Angeles, CA – LA Freeways, Los Angeles Freeways - The freeways of Los Angeles and Orange County. The people of Southern California are in a love hate relationship with their freeways. The logo of Los Angeles could be a number of things, but it might very well in fact be one of the automobile. There is an intensity and power found on Los Angeles freeways rarely found in other big cities. The freeways in Los Angeles were among the first and … [Read more...]

Los Angeles, CA – Public Transportation

by Dave · Leave a Comment

Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA ) Los Angeles, CA – Public Transportation Street Cars used to dominate the greater Los Angeles area serving many communities and locations. These were eventually phased out in the early 1960's. Today, the (MTA) operates the second largest metro system in the country. Los Angeles has quite a large metro - but it still needs to be built out further in sections and has been and is also in the process of being … [Read more...]

Los Angeles, CA – Weather

by Dave · Leave a Comment

Los Angeles, CA - Weather "LA's fine, the Sunshine's most 'the time, And the feeling is laid back - palm trees grow, rents are low...." croons Neil Diamond in his hit song "I am I Said". Well the part about the weather is certainly true - not that sure about rents in today's market! Los Angeles has great weather most of the year. A word of caution however regarding that last statement. Sometimes the LA area, and most specifically the areas … [Read more...]

Los Angeles, CA – Radio Stations

by Dave · 1 Comment

There are a number of radio stations broadcasting in the LA area. However, the variety of radio stations perhaps doesn't have the diversity as compared to other major cities. Also note that additional stations can be picked up if you have a HD Radio. Historical note: Have you noticed all those antennas on Mt Wilson? LA Radio pioneer Saul Levin is long time pioneering radio mogul who has lived in Los Angeles for many years. He started his … [Read more...]

Los Angeles, CA – Downtown

by Dave · Leave a Comment

For the nation's second largest city LA's downtown is actually very small and is eerily quiet on the weekends. On a number of occasions we have been standing in the middle of a major 6 lane boulevard in downtown just laughing to ourselves about the total lack of people and cars present! Certain streets are surprisingly empty. Depending on where you are (compared to the congestion of the freeways), even on weekdays parts of downtown can feel … [Read more...]
