hehehe, and my gal's name is Sharleen :p She arrives here in Alaska in about two days!

Also, thank's for not doing all your pic's Dooceed, I like a nice variety. I'm not sure I like the randomness of the whole thing, I would have liked to have seen them in order so they tell more of a story. But really, I'm not all that sure. I looked them over again and now I really want to go to L.A. my 'gal' and I are going on a weeklong vacation when she comes here to Vancouver. Originally I wanted to go to L.A. but she wanted to go to Canada. oh well...

So I guess you are a paying member at DavidLynch.com? I thought about joining up after I saw that interview of him on that computer channel. Is it worth joining up? When I get around to making a short-movie sometime this year (hopefully this summer) it'll be a good place to screen it I bet ;)

Huh. All this time I thought the Dooce-effect is that face a guy makes when he's gone south bit too soon after a cleaning, and it's still all vinegary.

SMP: Charlene's bloke is, in fact, an Aussie. Like your gal.

Speaking of Scientology . . .

Super pics. I took "spot" and am using it as my wallpaper here at work.

You should post the scientology pic to the mirrorproject.com .. excellent pics, thanks for consuming a nice chunk of time while I was at work. Did the NWA plane sport the new livery or the old? I don't care for their new logo, and was that an A310 or A320? I thought the Charlene and her bloke make a very cute couple. They look like the type who would meet on a David Lynch forum.

and you can see the photographer in the car's mirror...

M'gosh. That does greatly raise the Coolness Quotient of an already damnfine snap.

(One of these days I will learn to take in details on the first pass.)

The picture of the Scientology building, and you can see the photographer in the car's mirror, is now, officially, my favorite photograph ever.

Beautiful, all of it. (I either say that, or write some kinda goddam dissertation.)

With a better camera, some of those shots would've been salable. I shit you not.

Oh, cool! SMOG!!!

The Beverly Hillbilly meets the Odd Squad.

your friend has the same red/orange adidas shoes that i do. i didn't know 2 people would own the same hideously bright shoes in this world, that the curse was specific to me.

i guess not.

LA looks like a lot of crashing waves and martini glasses.

and i like that you met the woman who was kim novak's hand double in vertigo. i'm going to have to go rewatch that now and look for closeups of what are supposed to be kim novak's hands and say "that's a goddamn lie!" vertigo ist mine favorite hitchcock.

Great eye, girl. An excellent summary of your trip.

My favourites include the plates, the napping guys, the glass panes, the cool building, and the study in white. My absolute favourites, however, were the cliffs and solitary.

Glad to hear you had a great time.
