More Shots from Stiletto

A few more photos from last week in Stiletto: The Great FiveHead worked on a Chevy commercial, so she rented a Chevy for a few days. It was the only car in the neighborhood not from Japan, Sweden or Germany.



It was a perfect evening at the Observatory for a picnic and a little nostalgia.







Kamara and BZ were spotted doing yoga in Mummy P's living room. Then, they made up for it by making a fabulous dessert.




Mummy P. ate up two bowlsfull.



Paula Bear and Shmeckl were just back from Alaska.




The Great BZWZ took out Plotnik's guitar and played through all her new songs. It was a wonderful half hour to see and hear his girl play and sing so easily, and to discover she has such a gift for melody. It wasn't that long ago that the guitar looked like a sack of bricks on her lap but now she's comfortable and it sounds that way too.



The last morning in Stiletto, Plot, Duck and Kamara got to go see The Great PunkyDunky produce his news show live at KCRW.



Right on schedule, in the middle of the show the floors and walls shook. A guest was talking on the phone from Kabul but nobody was listening to him anymore, including the moderator, who was begging off-mike for the production crew to come up with information about whatever had just transpired. Everyone down in the radio bunker stared at CNN's National feed on the TV monitors to find out about the earthquake that had just happened on the street upstairs.

The earthquake was a lot of fun for me! I was around media covering it for all of Tuesday and Wednesday. Pretty exciting :)

Great post! And as usual educational too. For example:

1) It sounds like a Chevy in that area could lead to some profiling. Well, unless it was a Corvette, and that would just lead to tickets.

2) The penance for doing yoga is to make desserts.If you did yoga in a Chevy would dinner be included too?

3) Denali National Park has trouble with people stealing their signs.

4) BZWZ is almost for sure not fronting a punk rock band since the word "melody" was used, and not in an ironic way.

5) KCRW relies on a network based in Atlanta for info on an earthquake in LA. (Apparently the guy from Kabul was no help at all.)
