Venice - 5/25/2012
I've lived in Venice longer than I've lived anywhere (I'm originally from San Diego). I love it. Venice is a little piece of paradise on earth. Yes, there are problems with homeless, with parking, with very high housing costs, but it is a wonderful, walkable community, with great funky restaurants and wine bars, the boardwalk, the ocean, an eclectic mix of architecture and a creative population. Read More

LA - 5/22/2012
Of course, the traffic sucks. The heat in the valley and downtown area suck. Price of living sucks. Inflation and gas sucks. But! Everything else is beautiful. Besides the rich people, everyone's really friendly. You get more sunshine in LA than you do anywhere else in America (with FL an Hawaii exceptions). If you enjoy a good climate, low humidity, and just sunshine and heat (plus cool evenings), LA or even California is the place for you. Depending where you live, beach could be a half hour to an hour or so away. Mountains and hills are everywhere. The culture is rich. There is some pretty fine Mexican food. LA is hip on the latest trends, however you have to be quite a trend-follower or well-connected to find these places. Good advice. Live by your work or school, wherever you have to drive to 8 in the morning on a daily basis. Second advice, Silver Lake is for the prestigious hipsters, Venice Beach for prestigious hipsters, Pasadena and Beverly Hills for the Read More

ABRAHAM LINCOLN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL - 2/23/2012
This school is good but the recent Vice Principal has really packed a punch onto the seniors graduating year 2012. I know that student who graduated before 2012 did NOT need 20 hours of community Service hours or anything like that. I am a Current student in Lincoln High School, a school with great teachers and a principal but the new Vice Principal or whoever she is really did knock me out on the year of 2012. I have Senior Classes and now i have to worry about Community Service hours. Now, i can BARELY even keep my feet on the floor anymore, books, quiz, homework, projects, essays and many more coming left and right then i get a knockout punch for Community service hours and other stuff required for Graduation. Too much stress is going on right now for me to even FOCUS what i want to do. College apps, Community Service hours, Homework, Quiz, Test, Senior Portfolio. My god..what else is there?! Even my Dad who attended this school said it wasn't this horrible before, he graduated Read More

L.A. is almost beyond definition - 8/13/2011
It's white collar and blue collar. It's manicured lawns, but also barred-up windows. It's yoga-practicing vegans living next door to barbecue enthusiasts. It's whites and Hispanics, but also blacks, Asians, Europeans and Middle Easterners. It's a college town, but also a financial powerhouse. It's Disneyland, sunshine and miles of sandy beaches, but it's also graffiti, gangs, smog, earthquakes and riots. It's glamorous, but also gritty. It's Hollywood and the entertainment industry for sure, but it's also about every other conceivable industry you can think of as well.

That is L.A. It's beyond definition. It's almost anything and everything you can think of in a city rolled up into one. From Beverly Hills to Compton, Pacific Palisades to Watts, Manhattan Beach to Long Beach, L.A. doesn't just represent a part of our country, it represents a microcosm of our world.

Thousands from everywhere flock to L.A. every year to follow their dreams. For many, that's Read More

LA and my Love/Hate relationship - 6/22/2011
Well, I've lived in LA since 2006. Before that, I spent 7 years in Portland, OR, and 3 years in Houston, TX. Now what I do like about LA is that there is lots of great food, plenty of diversity, politically open-minded people, though in the suburbs are typically more conservative than those in the city, but still open-minded in their attitudes. Plenty of places to see and things to do, and great beaches and great mountains. However, the main downside is that it is DIRTY, just filthy. It's rated the dirtiest city in the US, and to me it's possibly the dirtiest in any developed country. The fact that there is not enough inner-city nature makes the place even more disgusting, and every time there is a space of land that you can build on, city developers will build on it! I also don't like how it is a city of no-opinion. When a trend hits LA, everyone follows it. If you don't, you look like a black sheep. Also, the weather. As a person who prefers cooler and rainier weather (being from Read More

Los Angeles is not is as expensive as most people - 5/7/2011
I am retired and live near Downtown L.A. Most people think that this would be one of the worst places to retire in the world. Not true.
It is cheap to live here. I just bought 8 pints of strawberries for a dollar! I drink to that and get a potent greyhound cocktail at one of the local bars for $3. Too many, I sober up with a good huevos rancheros breakfast w coffee for under $5. Not that chain store crap, but good food. I use my heat and air conditioning rarely and my typical gas bill is less than $10 per month. My electric bill is around $50. The weather is free here and it's mostly room temperature. I wonder how much New Yorkers would be willing to pay for that?
The weather solves another problem. I get around town on a motor scooter which I couldn't do as easily in Omaha. It has solved 2 problems: parking and gasoline cost. I highly recommend 2 wheels in congested cities. Los Angeles is more like Florence, Italy than Florence, Kentucky. I wouldn't want one there Read More
