February 6,

Tues | Jan 29 We live in a world of uncertainty. The economy is

good, then it's bad. The stock market is down in the morning, up in the

afternoon. Iraq? God knows (I mean that.) The next President? Is it the

woman? The black guy? The white dude? The other white dude with the […]

Tues | Jan 22 Rumors of rain. Wed | Jan 23 Dear God! Is that . . . WETNESS!? Thurs | Jan 24 A tornado warning. In Long Beach. How gauche. Look, we're

earthquake people, so much more primal and old money. Ditto mudslides

and brush fires with their spectacular images of destroyed

multimillion-dollar homes. Tornadoes? So […]

Tues | Jan 15 Mayor Bob Foster gives his State of the City

address and tells the folks who've paid like $100 a plate that we need

money. Somebody get on that. Wed | Jan 16 Alumnus Terry Rhodes donates $1.25 million to Cal State

Long Beach saying the lessons he learned at the school helped […]

Tues | Jan 8 Oh, what a simpler pursuit politics must have

seemed for Arnold Schwarzenegger when all it required was gathering

together a few star-struck rubes and intimating your opponents were

either homosexual, transgendered or didn't smoke cigars. Back then,

, the thing he told us he could do best was handle money. The […]

Tues | Jan 1 Happy New Year! Let's hope is as great and

enlightened and peaceful as . . . wait . . . Anyway, I

changed my usual routine for ringing in the New Year—equal parts

Gatorade and crème de menthe—and instead chaperoned my son's first

boy/girl shindig, or, as he proudly […]

Tues | Dec 18 The folks from the new Star Trek movie I'll never

see have packed up and left town after filming in Lincoln Park for a

spell. The film crew's presence gave thrilled locals the chance to gawk

at bizarrely costumed aliens with other worldly pallor speaking a

strange language, until they realized […]

Tues | Dec 11 The City Council of beautiful Downey, California,

votes to hire a consultant to help them figure out what to do with

what's left of Johnie's Broiler. You remember Johnie's, right? It's the

authentic '50s drive-in that was a shining example of Googie

architecture—it also happened to make a club sandwich so […]

Tues | Dec 4 The Long Beach School Board votes 3-2 to ask board

member Michael Ellis to resign immediately. Now, Ellis has his faults:

He missed two of the last four meetings, got popped in August for a DUI

and I'm not crazy about his goatee, but this is one of those deals when

FRI. NOV. 30: FEAR NO EVEL Tues | Nov 27 Everyone is talking about the latest issue of Self

magazine which says that women living in Long Beach/Los Angeles are the

THURS. NOV. 22: MMM, JUDI DENCH Tues | Nov 20 Federal agents raid a medicinal marijuana facility on

Fourth Street and get a bunch of cannabis and the comforting feeling

that they are torturing the sick and dying—E Pluribus Unum, boys! The

facility, which had the head shop-sounding name "Compassionate

Caregivers," is one of the facilities […]
