Just to let everyone know, the E3 Convention is being held until TODAY at the SAME vicinity (the LA Convention Ctre) right across Staples Center (where the rowdy revelers aka mexicans) are having their enjoyment.
THE Ubisoft company gave us a free pass. One of them asked “is it safe out here past 10 pm?” I said “tonight’s not a good night when people are celebrating or pissed off if the lakers lose..”

Burn baby...Burn.

Hey, that is hitting too close to home. Rahm LOOKS for crisis to exploit don’t ya know.
Sex.
Enough said. And Yes I am married and have been since 1999 when I stopped watching any sport other than Ice Hockey. At least there they fought it out right during the game!
That’s OK....only “privileged” people take taxis. It’s Obama time......
