   Doh! And here I was looking for something to do this past weekend!   
   Hollywood Bowl is spectacular. I like the whole picnic before and bring   
   your wine and cheese and crackers into the concert with you vibe. What   
   concert was it? Last time I was there (about 6 months ago) it was an   
   80's night with ABC, Human League and Psychadelic Furs.

   I deal with it this way... I live one mile from work and ride my bike.

   The interchange from the 405 to the 101 is notoriously the worst   
   possible thing to ever get yourself into. Even at 3:00am it's nasty.   
   Though, if you can believe it, they recently rebuilt it... it used to be   
   even worse.
