I can see for miles and miles . . . (oh yayuh)

So I’ve just finished moving into my new Venice apartment. I now have a view of the Pacific, Santa Monica mountains, Hollywood Hills and most of LA this side of the Valley. Plus McDonald’s and Domino’s within view. It’s a trip seeing charter planes take off from the residential area around the Santa […]

Here are my theoretical new additions: […]

Shoot to thrill

New song
