LACMA's Journey To The Los Angeles County Museum Of Art

The 150 mile journey from the Jurupa Valley off Interstate Highway 15 in Riverside County to Los Angeles has finally ended. This 340 ton boulder traveled on surface streets at 3 MPH and made several stops along the way.  It could not go under any bridge because of its 30 foot height, and the length of the vehicles required wide maneuvering paths to clear itself.  It took 3 diesel tractor trailers to manage to move it along its journey.

I managed to come across the journey when it arrived in Cerritos, off South Street between Studebaker Road and Palo Verde Avenue, right by the Cerritos Auto Square.  It then made its journey through Lakewood, into Long Beach on Atlantic Avenue.  It had its problems when it passed the Long Beach Memorial Hospital;  the 6% grade going downhill near Willow Street where the Newport-Inglewood earthquake fault line crosses Atlantic Avenue forms a bowl, making it treacherous for the boulder to proceed.  The uphill battle required plenty of power from the 3 diesel trucks to climb up the grade, while the downhill made it extremely dangerous, causing a risk of going out of control, should the brakes fail.  I managed to get some pictures when it passed by at Pacific Coast Highway, (State Highway 1).

Finally, I headed to Western and Wilshire to capture the last leg of the journey on Saturday Morning.  The pictures will speak for themselves.

KFI AM 640 "CLEARS THE CHANNEL" OF JOHN AND KEN

John Kobylt

The management at Clear Channel's Los Angeles radio station AM 640 KFI has suspended John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou known as John And Ken until February 27 2012.  KFI claims that the show hosts said some insensitive things about the death of Whitney Houston.

Ken Chiampou

John & Ken

Funny, I smell a rat here!  Did they really suspend them for that reason only?  Or does having Barack 0bama in town have something to do with it?  My bet is the latter.  They're afraid that John and Ken will expose 0bama's new clothes to the naked truth, and they're using the death of Whitney Houston as a cheap excuse to keep them off the air.

Life of Irl the Liberal Baboon: the Daddy Chronicles

The following is a fictional account of Irl the liberal baboon:

Occupoop Los Angeles

Today, I drove by the "0ccupy LA site" aka Los Angeles City Hall.  I pity the moonbats!  As I drove up, at 1 light, some Kenyan moonbat decided he had the right to cross the street on a red light!  I nearly ran into the dumb moonbat!  At another intersection, some moonbat bimbo and her dope decided to start crossing when the don't walk warning started flashing.  The dumbasses were in my blindspot when I started turning after I waited for a crowd to finish crossing legally.  The bimbo and her tallywhacker moonbat gave me a dirty look when I honked my horn at them.  Now for the real scoop:  I could smell a bad stench across the street!  Driving by the occupied area looked awful!  Judge for yourself with the drive by pics I took.  Trust me, I wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible!  The stench could make you puke!

Hey Occupoopers, TAKE A BATH & GET A JOB!

Hey lefty loons! You really should listen to what Newt says. You can't keep free loading and trespassing on the LA City Hall's lawns. You heard the message your head moonbat has said: it's time to move on! Stop pooping in public like a bunch of mongrels, take a bath, and get a job. Jobs don't fall out of the sky, unlike your fellow moonbats, so flap your arms, fly on over to a bathroom, take a bath, and get back to work!
