Hey there
a photographer took my picture outside of the Suicide Girls show before it started, she said it would be on here somewhere? I was wondering if you could please tell me where I may find it. Thank you. To see what I look like, go to my link.

Linda,

Great blog on the Spaceland concerts. You are harder to recognize than ever.

You did a nice job on the Rosendahl/Lincoln Place piece.

I covered much of the events related to the Lincoln Place evictions since Bill's been in office, always curious as a journalist how he expected to help the tenants without a solid game plan and perhaps the necessary legal and political firepower to put it into action.

This is, of course, no criticism of Bill as a person, only as an effective politician on this issue.

The Santa Monica Daily Press has chastized Bill in its editorials for this "hugs" approach to solving the problem and perhaps for misguiding his constituents, who have looked to him, and maybe inappropriately so, for answers.

I can see from your article that not much has changed in regards to rectifying the situation. Bill's motion, if passed, will only have the effect of delaying the inevitable. He might as well just give the tenants more hugs.

The only way the evictions at Lincoln Place can be stopped is if AIMCO agrees to come back to the bargaining table, or if the city makes a serious effort to challenge AIMCO's posturing.

However, keeping the issue in the public light and getting the LA City Council to comment about it in the media, especially, is important if any serious steps are still to be taken.

It seems to me the media has done its job keeping the public abreast of another missed affordable housing opportunity in Los Angeles.

Now it's a matter of whether those in office will maintain the status quo, or demonstrate a little leadership by pursuing a more decisive course of action on behalf of the tenants.

Linda,
I liked your article about Mew. My band is playing the Lava Lounge this Wednesday and we'd love if you'd attend and bring other members of your super-cute hyper-literate posse. Our lead singer hasd been described as Neil Labute if he had eaten Count Chocula instead of Fruity Loops as a kid. Check out the website. Keep writing!!

Hi Linda,
Saw your article about shooting.

Could I invite you to look over a website called www.californiaccw.org? There are a lot of people on the site with similar interest in shooting as recreation, and some lively discussion of various topics, gun and non-gun related.

i appreciate the guide to new places to shoot, also, as my usual place has been closed down by the City of Azusa. the San Gabriel Valley Gun Club was in the foothills near Irwindale Avenue, next to a quarry. the City fathers decided to shut it down. No plans for the site, just shut it down.

There is another outdoor range called Burro Canyon. Go north on Azusa Avenue well up into the hills. I like shooting outside.

Regards,
Harry
