Well, he's not really running yet, we just dropped him off at Dodger Stadium. He's running today for the Make A Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles in honor of his father. You can contribute to his run here:

Going back to sleep now, until we go meet him at Mile 7, down the street from our house, and later at the finish line in Santa Monica.

Power outages are more fun when you leave.. Lots of friends here at the Troub :)

Jonathan Gold of LA Weekly, Cedd Moses of 213 and Michael Cimarusti of Providence at JGold's Union Station Cocktail Party, to benefit Zocalo Public Square. (213 bars include Seven Grand, Varnish, Tony's, Broadway Bar, The Doheny, etc.)

213 bartenders just made Jonathan a Ramos Gin Fizz onstage -- lots of shaking! They're talking about their still fruitless search for Pepe Ruiz, the bartender whom Sinatra asked to make 200 Flame of Love cocktails on the spot, and that Americans invented the cocktail. I didn't know that fact, but I don't drink. (I came for the food. :)

Ok, back to listening and eating...

Perfect.

The Air Quality Management District’s website has a map of the air quality in the Los Angeles region at http://www2.aqmd.gov/webappl/gisaqi2/VEMap3D.aspx. Currently the map says the quality of air in Burbank is moderate, when I can see from my window that the sky is yellow and hazy. They’ve deemed the fire areas good.

I have no idea how this sounds or looks, but I know fans online wanna see what's going on. I would shoot more but my bberry won't email large videos, sorry guys. Will post more later.

Wish I'd brought my SLR.. Love these guys.
