Today marks the 200th & something anniversary of the founding of The City of Our Lady of The Angels of Porciuncula, known to most of you as Los Angeles, California (or L. A.) known to us as the city in whose parks we sleep. L. A. was founded by a collection of losers who were run out of the Spanish mission to the east, San Gabriel, & walked west until they found running water.
In the 200 odd yrs. since, more & more people have been attracted here, for reasons no longer determinable. Really, the weather isn't that great. Just stay the hell away.
