Zap Scooter
Smart Funny Useful
Updated Mar 16, 2007
Great for Los Angelenos for obvious reasons: space savers, air savers, fuel savers. Why whizz around in a sportscar when you can ZAP around town on one of these?

Updated Mar 16, 2007
Perfect writer's retreat... dropped in by a crane to an ideal locale! Closest I'll ever come to having a flying house. (I don't think the crane is included in the price. But what do you want for under 100K?)

MUTINY ON THE RINGS
Smart Funny Useful
Updated Aug 28, 2006
Buy the DVD on www.mutinyontherings.com or in person at Santa Monica original muscle beach, south of the Santa Monica pier where ringmaster Bruno Angelico swings every Sunday (French guy in a beret). The DVD captures L.A.'s unique "subculture" of renegades at Venice Beach's traveling rings + allows ground-bound viewers to vicariously fly.

Chinatown LA

The movie by Roman Polanski was great, but the surREAL Chinatown in downtown L.A. is even better. Via Cafe = great ambience + food + view, especially during Chinese New Year. Bring cash.

Freestanding, lightweight, expandable "honeycomb" partition wall made of paper. Genius design, renewable materials... great for a person like me with a loft. Removes the notion of fixed, static living. Creates malleability of space.

A dusty book from: Dutton's Books in Brentwood or Cliff's Books in Pasadena both stores are the "real deal" and overstuffed to maximize possibilities for random discoveries. Support independent, locally owned booksellers! What a concept!

Updated May 16, 2006
Buy organic vegetables from the farmer's market in front of the Los Angeles Public Library, DOWNTOWN L.A.
(Then go inside!)
Support adult literacy oasis in downtown. On the third floor looking down, I feel like I'm in the ministry of information in a scene from Terry Gilliam's, "Brazil."
