Some asshole started a fire in the Hollywood hills and the Greek Theatre is about to burn down. So long Arcade Fire tix! Up in smoke!! Good-bye Griffith Observatory! Good-bye Walt Disney's old house where my dad would sneak in as a child and swim in his pool! Good-bye to all those old beautiful homes....

In related news: Grandma's house will probably - er, I dunno, maybe - be gone by morning. Grandpa (rip) taught me to swing a golf club (not very well!) there. Grandma would drive me on Mr Toad's wild ride over to Michael's (was the old Brown Derby) for lunch....Grandma gave me the gift of smoking cigarettes by not catching me steal hers... It's weird to watch part of your childhood go up in flames. Damn.
