17.6 Million People Can’t Be Wrong

When I think of Los Angeles, one of the first words that comes to mind is diversity. Not just diversity of people, but also environment, food, and culture.

Want a beach? Take your pick.

Hills? Hollywood.

Mountains? Big Bear.

Urban areas? Skyscrapers and body-piercings aplenty.

Live music? World class.

Great sushi? Oh yeah.

Tasty burgers? No shortage.

Theme parks? Six Flags, Universal, and Disneyland, for starters.

Drive-thru trees? Not yet (Myers Flat has cornered the market).

Silicone implants? Not my bag, baby. But if you must, consider the 2-for-1 special!

Britney Spears? No comment.

And the list goes on...

It’s impossible to do everything here, but that doesn’t stop 17.6 million people from trying. About the only thing in LA that’s not diverse is the weather, so residents must tolerate month-after-month of sunny, low humidity days.

If there’s a knock on LA, it’s that there are 17, 599,999 other people occupying the same general area as you. Rush hour starts at 4AM--and things don't start slowing down until around 3AM.

Obviously we're enjoying Malibu, so the Airstream will remain parked for a few more days.
