Things to do in Hollywood...

#1. Give Denzel Washington Vernie's phone number.

But seriously...

I've never been to Hollywood, so I have no suggestions, but I hope you have a great time. Make sure you give us a full report when you return.

And no, I don't haz a jealous because you get 2 weeks of fun and sun while the rest of us work our buns off for the man.

Okay, here's my list.

1. A T-shirt. Extra large. Preferably with DC Superheroes on it.

2. The names and addresses of all the movie producers whom I can hit up for possible adaptions of my novels to the big screen.

3. A box of Ka-lee-forn-eye-ay sunshine, because here in Osaka it really sucks. Japan ain't warm all the time, don'tcha know.

4. Scarlet J's phone number. Yeah, I like her. There I said it. Deal.

5. If you can't get numbers one through four, don't sweat it. Have a great time!

The Observatory at Griffith Park is cool- and a big movie landmark. Hollywood Forever Cemetery is a nice cemetery although Memorial Park in Westwood has more famous people. I mean...dead ones.
If you like comic books, DEFINITELY go to Meltdown on Sunset- they also do a lot of comedy shows there. Also, if you like comedy catch a show at Upright Citizens Brigade or Largo. L.A. County Museum of Art...the museums in Exposition Park (that's downtown though)... I guess the Chinese, just to see it, but it's just a mall now really. You could go to Sunset Junction and watch the hipsters go by.

Pro tip: If you hang around any dive in Hollywood long enough there's a good chance you will eventually see Kiefer Sutherland. It just happens.
