Was Jay Leno in attendance? Seems like his kind of show.



Nope John. I didn't see him there this year!

(I'm guessin' it's 'cuz his "new hours" have thrown his schedule off a little bit lately!)

My older bro went to El Camino for a while after high school in the 60's when my family lived in Lawndale. On a business trip some time back, I mentioned to a friend that I intended to cruise by the old family homestead, but I was advised not to visit that neighborhood, because it's now pretty "gangy." Sad.



Nah! It ain't as bad as you've been led to believe. But yeah, the demographics have changed quite a bit in Lawndale since the Wilson brothers were bangin' out hit after hit just north of here in Hawthorne.

(yep...nowdays there'd be MUCH more of a chance of a song eminating from this neck of the words with the lyrics of..."And she'll have fun, fun, fun 'til her daddy takes her Low-Rider awaaaay...aaay...aaay...aaay!")

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
