skydiver, still thinking about your offer. My son is pushing for DVD's first season.
Martouf,
Yes, we see the big HOLLYWOOD sign from La Brea Ave from the top of our hill. I live about half way up, in the very quiet section. And I can enter the mess that is LA anytime I choose. Occasionally it seeps up here. Three nights ago was sitting with my son and dog on the balcony and we heard the police heliocopter announce two blocks away that we had better lock our doors and put on our alarms. He hopped over the balcony and closed and locked the downstairs door and went to his alarm pad, did the status check and then locked us down. That is as much excitement as wee need! Problems on Stocker! Got both us and Baldwin Hills. But my son and I got laughing as this is the only area in the South section of LA where they tell you to lock your doors AND put on the alarms!
