Beautiful. We live vicariously through you guys, as we still have a Snowfall Warning on here. At least it is only -10 out...

Mean Streets of LA. Not the best pizza, not the best rain, but definitely THE BEST MEXICAN in the Joo Ess.

Faux Tuscan living which replaced legit Texas BBQ. And in the background there's a faux downtown; 10 lawyers work down there.

I do like the travelogue style of posting to this thread. Meanwhile... I ponder what Bill Murray would do in this mole infested grassy knoll. Clearly the Teletubbies aren’t doing their job...

That may be true. And while the Gatekeeper may take the bike, there’s no chance in hell he’s letting me past Security.

Nooooo! We just broke the all-time start-of-March snowfall record with 44 continuous hours (set in 1885). Its only -13, so at least my son can practice hitting outside today.

@beetanik, we're going to opening-day. What would you say was the best Mexican?
