It’s not just H. David Nahai anymore. At LA Observed, which I read at least a couple of times daily, Kevin mentions Ron Kaye’s blog, RonKayeaLA.com. (Ron is the former editor of Daily News.) This is generous of him, because Ron totally disses Kevin for a suck-up bio on H. David Nahai that Kevin wrote for the July Los Angeles Magazine. Now, I like Kevin a whole lot, but I have to agree with Ron on this – this is definitely not a well-balanced article. (Maybe because most city magazines are rah-rah?) One point of Kevin’s story reads: His pro-environment ethic, [Nahai says], “came to me as a result of…

I actually added a category yesterday called dwp. That’s sad. What does that say about me? Am I the nerdiest geek ever? Must I pay attention to the utility commission now? Only H.

He is really an engineer, (or was), and PR person for the LA dwp. He’s also a good friend of LaBonge.) Click for better view. The white line…

I wouldn’t be surprised if the LADWP received threats because of the bird balls in Ivanhoe. Two days after I blogged about the Corner o’ Rocks (TM) in slk that I thought was a graveyard, a guard started to park his car RIGHT there. For the first time. I had been running there for almost a year, and there had never been a guard there before; they are always at the guardhouse, or on the median, right between the 2 reservoirs. A couple times one of the guards would race along the inside road (you can see just the edge of it in the center of the photo) to get…
