And GrimC is right - In'n'Out's an excellent fast-food burger, but any A-listers who head there after the Oscars are just goofin'.

Also, I think Savigny's got the right of it - La Cañada/Flintridge is a small town north of Pasadena, up near JPL. They do have a "La Cañada Blvd.", but it's not even one of the major streets in La Cañada/Flintridge.

They must have been thinking of La Cienaga (which I'll note is Spanish for "The Swamp", for the benefit of anyone under the mistaken impression that LA is in the desert).

No traffic jams? Did you miss the people having a tailgate party on freeway? (What, do you think those cars on the freeway are moving? The only thing moving on that freeway is the guy on the Segway.)

And that's not Disneyland, it's just one of the fancy neon-illuminated Disneyland billboards (with half the letters burned out, as usual).

But wait - where's the Angelyne billboard? :-)

As for In'n'Out, it's a best-of-breed specimen of its type: a quick-cooking, grab-on-the-go eat-in-the-car fast-food burger.

But if you have time to sit'n'savor, try Fatburger. It's worth the wait, and they have fresh onion rings and chili fries, too. Finest kind.

Big square USB-key duplicator

"Sovietly square"? "Incredibly retro industrial design"?

What? Did none of you grow up with soldering irons in your geeky little hands?

This is just a standard, off-the-shelf "project box" or "project enclosure".

Round-cornered box made of folded, painted sheet metal or molded ABS plastic with a screwed-on sheet-aluminum cover. Used by generations of hobbyists to build one-off or limited-run electronics projects of all sorts.

You can get ones just like it today at Radio Shack or most any other electronic hobbyist parts supplier.

Experimental Games being given away free with t-shirts at Target

The games "must be developed in 7 days or less, by a single person", and you're whining because there's no Mac version?

What an amazing sense of entitlement you have.
