"And you thought L.A. was so cool."
So there I was at one of those rent-a-red-carpet premieres in Hollywood last night and, looking up, noticed a skywriter at work up in the, you know, sky, like.He was writing the word "Respect" but by the time he got to the T the rest of the word had become amorphous. As a metaphor for Hollywood, it was reasonable. As an omen, it was inappropriate.
Following the afterparty at Tommy Lee's Rokbar (I like that place - they serve shots in square glasses), my errant friend Paul and I emerged onto Hollywood Blvd. to see a full-fledged fight in action. A gang of 20-something guys was kicking another guy into the street, in traffic, and further kicking him as he lay on the ground. I started walking back there but Paul said something like, "Forget it, Jake - it's Chinatown" and we headed to our cars.
Not ten steps later, a woman shouted the following at us from a passing car:
"I'll sit on your face and eat your face all night!"
All I could say was, "All right," but nothing came of it. I don't know how she could eat my face by sitting on it, unless she has vagina dentata.
A fight in the street and people yelling stupid things out car windows, I said. It's like being back in high school.
"And you thought L.A. was so cool," Paul said.

Sit on my face and tell me that you love me.....
Well OK, but won't everybody at Univision be jealous?
Do you know how many times someone has been shot, stabbed or cludged right after the lines:
"A gang of 20-something guys was kicking another guy into the street, in traffic, and further kicking him as he lay on the ground. I started walking back there.." (fill in the blank)
Unless it's your brother or a friend stay out of a large brawl unless you know what you're doing. (Be ready to get knocked the fuck out or to knock someone the fuck out.)
