Food find (budget edition): Osteria Mozza, Nobu West Hollywood, Rice + Beans

It's terrifying what lives between America's coasts.

Tasers. Pink stun guns. And another deadly move by the NYPD.

The RSVP Line (Weekend Edition): An artsy kind of Saturday.
You spent the week in a cubicle (those few of you who aren't actors who spend mornings on Runyon Canyon anyway). Get yourself out of the box this weekend with some artsy, fartsy activities around town. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7* SILVERLAKE ART CRAWL brings art, parties and beer to the East side. How does this differ from a normal weekend in Silverlake, you ask? Ummm..

Design Dish: Comme des Garçons & The Beatles, a questionable collaboration.
I wanted so badly to like this collaboration. I have great love for Comme des Garçons. I have great love for The Beatles. I have gratitude for a major design house's willingness to produce a leather-free collection. But if the rest of the collection looks anything like this first bag I've seen, I just cannot get behind it. It would be an assault on my personal style.[

If a tree falls and no one tweets about it...
I know exactly where hundreds of my friends, acquaintances and ex-boyfriends are right now. I know what my coworker is listening to several cubes over. And I know what you ate last night for dinner...with whom...and what celebrity was sitting next to you.

Sounds: currently listening to...Zee Avi
Zee Avi is young (she is only 23).She came to LA just a year or so ago from Borneo, by way of Kuala Lumpu.She has one of those discovery stories that inspires and is awesome and I'm listening to her first album as we speak.

Where the Wild Things Are. As interpreted by dirty hipsters.
I saw 'Where the Wild Things Are' last week in the theatre. I was disappointed. Spike Jonze and Warner Brothers turned my beloved childhood tale by Sendak into a drawn out, emo, plotless film. It was beautiful, yeah. But as my friend noted--it totally could have/should have been a short.I just saw 'Where the Dirty Hipsters Are' about two minutes ago. I was thrilled.
