3:30 am. Can't sleep so I'll post a photo.

Santa Monica Pier

On Friday, LA Observed made a nice comment about Thursday's photo "Downtown L.A." which resulted in more than 2,000 views. This I like.

Now I'd like to thank everyone who in the past year has put in a nice word about the J-Weed on their blogs. In no particular order they are Eclectic Boogaloo, Glimpses of South Pasadena, Man Talk Now, Chicken Corner, The Teacher's View, MortVark-O-Rama, Debi Cates Photo A Day, Lally's Alley and Don't Look Here For Answers.

If I'm forgetting someone, I'm sorry. Let me know and I'll add your site.

Voting?

Yes, I'm going to get my free cup of Starbucks but, goddam, people got shot, beaten and blown up to make this day happen.

Day Of The Dead (Midnight)

Dia De Los Muertos

The Day of The Dead. As usual, Our Lady Queen of Angels had a very subdued, very sincere collection of altars to remember those who had "crossed over." The above altar (partial photo) was for the Los Angeles soldiers that had died in Iraq. There wasn't anything political about it but it had obviously been put together by family members - one corner was "For Joselito."
