I love L.A.

It's true, I really do. Well, most of it. Much of the town on the outskirts, I could do without as most of it is basically the same anyways. And it isn't the sort of gritty Los Angeles you see in 'Crash' either. It't not even that nice. But as for the heart of the town and the West and North side, I couldn't get enough of it. However, there's no way I could afford to actually live there. But if I could, I wouldn't mind doing so for a period of time.

Many things are true about the town. First off, everyone has something to push. It might be a script, it might be a rap album, it might even just be a character on the sidewalk that they are just trying to get tips for. While the town is mainly centric on the the business of entertainment, it's more about the business of entertainment, not primarily the entertainment itself. However, that's not a bad thing at all. You know how every city has a calling? Pittsburgh and Birmingham are industrial cities. Detroit makes cars. Atlanta has Turner. L.A. makes films. And do it as glam as possible. It's self indulgent. It's slightly obsessed with image. But it's a heck of a lot of guilty fun. It's a faux, yet plausibly magical town and I loved every minute that I was in it.
