Spittin' Wicked Randomness, Vol. Some-Odd

Re-Animator at the Drive-In! And in March, The Egyptian is hosting a Grindhouse Festival and a program of UPA 'toons. Sweet.

There's a great article about Tiki decorating in today's L.A. Times. I totally want this living room:

More great pics in the article. And in case you missed it, last week's L.A. Weekly has a typically great piece of writing by Jonathan Gold on grilled meats in Los Angeles, including clandestine taco carts of East L.A.:

Does it matter that my favorite stand, set up most evenings in front of an auto body shop, has no name, no license, and may not be there tomorrow or next week? Does the stand’s precariousness, the fact that its lights are powered through cables attached to the battery of a constantly running old car, and the surreptitious nature of the transaction flavor the experience? Or is it the lashings of cumin in the meat’s marinade, the careful grilling and the elegant green salsa that has a family resemblance to a hotly spiced Punjabi chutney?

Damn, that makes me hungry. Oh, one last heads-up: President's Day Weekend sale at Brand Books in Glendale. Everything's 20% off and no tax, and it's one of the best used bookstores in L.A.
