I’ve been invited to contribute to a group blog: Mayor Sam’s Sister City. They’re kind of raucous and wild over there. Still, I guess someone thought I was a needed voice to whip them up even higher.
I don’t know how often. I feel more at home here. But here’s my first post there. It’s about Felix the Cat, Councilman Tom LaBonge, and Griffith Park, and how the whole world is intertwined in some wonderful way.
