LA rules, especially when a rooftop pool party brings together a nice mix of music (NY's Holy Ghost! & LA's Classixx who've remixed each other), a fairly equal mix of New Yorkers & Angelenos wearing close to nothing under the warm California sunshine, sprinkled with the wicked friends of Dorothy & the sexy friends of Bill! Los Angeles is such a vast & compartmentalized mosaic. there's more diversity here than most other sprawling megapolis... in spite of the thick veil of hipsterdom, on a rooftop at the center of it all, the mosaic may just morph into an actual melting pot!
throughout this page, find a few more songs to play along with your glancing at my super lo-fi mobile pics. i highly recommend watching the clip at the tail end of this post. no need to speak nor understand italian; if you have a pulse, it will tickle your fancy... back to Holy Ghost, check out the 4th video down this page... ok, here we go:
this catchy sign is appropriately located in Koreatown. if you live in LA, you know that one must drive most defensively in K-town. the use of rear & sideview mirrors, turning signals & many other driving rules seem to be ignored more often in K-town than other parts of LA... however, Koreans have the best BBQ joints, some of the best late late night eateries & decadent karaoke bars. they're certainly worth the risk! just drive defensively while keeping your cool. never forget: safety is sexy!!!
poolside afternoons aside, there's nothing better than bumping into old friends in Elysian Park while unwinding on a sunset hike with Chicho... on this note, lets wrap it up with a jazzy American classic:

i love Chicho more than anything in the world! finally, here's some fantastic footage of the woman this pooch was named after - the fearless Cicciolina! in this interview at her Roman pad, she's questioned about which celebrities she would bed. this was before Jeff Koons exploited their union & dragged her in a divorce from hell... when asked about Libya's dictator Khadafi, la Cicciolina says "no" because she is against colonels, which makes it all the more selfless that she offered herself twice to Saddam Hussein - first as a condition for him to pull out of Kuwait & end the Gulf War, then years later to avoid the Bush invasion of Iraq... her admirable variety of humanitarian zeal is worthy of sainthood!!! LONG LIVE LA CICCIOLINA:
