It's possible that Los Angeles is a figment of its own imagination. No other city studies itself so intently - on film, television and in glossy magazines. LA is where the American Dream is manufactured, and if you're not prepared to embrace the dream, you'll doubtless find it filthy, irritating, frightening or just plain dumb. But if you long to stand in the footsteps of stars and breathe their hallowed air, you've come to the right place.

They may not like my wardrobe, but I'll shop at Valu Village to try to not look touristy before I visit! Thanks for the warnings. What if the multiple cameras are digital & underwater & for movies? Maybe I should hook one up to my belt? Thanks for help! | RhondaRuth Mon Jan 3, 2005 19:40 UTC
You comments in 'Local Customs" are both interesting and very accurate. It's very helpful stuff to know! | chaistarr Tue Mar 2, 2004 00:03 UTC
