Right now its 12:05 am Venice Beach, CA ... I am sitting in
Van Goh's Ear (coffee shop/cafe (open 24hrs)) ... there is Mexican
food in the air as well as faint music coming from the kitchen
(Moody Blues: "Story in your eyes") ... a black man
with a big smile politely walks up to a Mexican couple at the
next table and hands the pretty lady a flower and humbly asked
for some money, the lady gives him a dollar before her man can
get to his wallet
The flower pusher grabs the money and
mumbles, "I won't bother him he's busy ", as he walks
by me typing on my computer. ------
Earlier, I was hanging out at the Santa Monica promenade Christmas
shopping ... I got hungry for Hindu food so I set out in search
of vindaloo. I consulted the oracle in my computer and it said
the nearest joint was, "Dhabi cuisine of India 0.62 miles
away". I pulled up to the front of the building noticed the
parking meter was expired and thought to my self ... self, its
too late for them to snag me, right? ... wrong $28 .... I've paid
more in parking tickets in the last month than all previous parking
tickets in my life combined. if you are in LA watch where you
park. It's surreal!
Well, anyway ... while in the restaurant there was a party
going on for some guy named Wally ... which one is he? ... I noticed
they didn't have a camera and I did, so I snapped this one and
emailed it to him ... it made them happy and gave them and me
something to talk about.
