Looking for a different spin on the City of Angels? Look no further. Esotouric Tours has drawn much praise for their off-the-”beaten”-path guided crime/literary/architecture tours of LA. I can honestly say their worth every penny!

On May 3, they’re offering their ever-popular Raymond Chandler tour. Click here for more information: http://www.esotouric.com/chandler-5-3-08

Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is opening its doors to the public May 3-4 from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. both days.

The event celebrates JPL’s accomplishments with exhibits and demonstrations about the Laboratory’s ongoing research and space exploration. Many of the Lab’s scientists and engineers are on hand to answer questions about how spacecraft are sent to other planets, how scientists utilize space technologies to explore Earth and how researchers are searching for planets beyond the solar system.

Tucked away on the busiest thoroughfare in LA (Hollywood Boulevard), Tropicana Bar is truly an oasis of talent. The kind guys/girls drool over and the kind critics dream of. The ladies got their eye candy yesterday when Casey Affleck showed up and sat down poolside with a book. Knowledge is power…something he probably learned from Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting.

Connection: Tropicana Bar was featured in Jimmy Kimmel’s spoof on his girlfriend’s music video. Sarah Silverman f*cked Matt Damon, so Jimmy f*cked Casey’s brother. It’s the scene with Brad Pitt:
