On the Hollywood Scene

posted 29 Aug 2003, 12PM | 4 Comments

My girlfriend lives in the heart of tinseltown, and parking a car at night is no easy task, especially in my boat. But the reward for finding a space at 11pm on Hollywood Blvd is a long walk humanity spectacle: the skinny fellow staring at the ground, a jittery white woman with frizzed hair trying to give a cigarette to a twenty-something punk passed out in a doorway, a red-eyed bearded man buttoning up his shirt on a bus stop bench, the shifty-eyed gentleman in the dirty grey tank top. There's the big dark fella charging his cell phone on the wall inside the check-cashing store, and the occassional ugly drag queen. When it comes to freaks, we've got Boston beat. Still, people don't scare me much.

what about central square, at about 1:30 am, after the gay bars start to clear out into grimy pizza joints after drag queen competitions? truly surreal.

awesome new design, by the way, ryan.
