That is Sooooo L.A...




My first week in LA I was dining with the Newcomer family as they celebrated Ali's graduation at Occidental. Throughout there time in LA they used this phrase to describe something that is completely ridiculous and would probably only happen in LA. I saw this billboard in the airport and decided to write about things that were so LA. Here is my mini list... feel free to post a comment on what you feel is SOOOO LA!

- That people will flock to a city for a pop stars death and then asks it's citizens to help pay for the $4 million it cost to close down freeways and have extra security for the 2 hour long event.



- That there are yogurt, cupcake and doughnut shops on every street like Starbucks even though more than half of the city's population is on a diet.


-That there is a 30 degree difference in a 20 mile radius of the city. 80's on the beach at Venice and Santa Monica, 90's downtown and 100's in the valley.
