Western Bagel Saved My Life

Originally uploaded by richardschave.

Kim and I were driving to my mother's house in Sherman Oaks for Mother's day while having a heated discussion of why I was ignoring my self-nominated position of He Who Brings the Bagels to lunch. I was insisting we were going to be late, and it was not that important. Well, it was. And I am glad I listened to Kim and got off the freeway one exit before my mother's and got a dozen bagels. As soon as we drove away my timing chain in my car broke.

Having your car stop dead in its tracks in the right lane of Ventura Blvd. just east of Coldwater Canyon is annoying. But the alternative, had I not bought bagels--stopping dead on the freeway would have been catastrophic.

Eat more bagels. Listen to your wife. Drive the speed limit.

L'chaim!

Megan and I vamp for the episode I helped shoot with her downtown.

I am going to dinner with Dot (Raymond Chandler’s former secretary from Paramount Studios) after the visit to the Watson Archive.

Loren Latker is the mastermind behind all of this.

I am visiting the Watson Photo Archives this afternoon. Their family (four generations) has almost single handedly documented the city.

And one of them took this photo.

This is more fun than I thought.

This is my first post with Ecto, a blogging client from my laptop. It is going to help me a lot.

Here is a photo that I like:
