FROM PERKS
Just when you think you’ve got a “guy” for everything… Pillow Guy comes along. So now you’ve got a pillow guy. And he’s used his extensive knowledge of thread-counts, fill-power and getting a good night’s sleep to curate this collection of pillows, comforters and linen sets. Presumably so you don’t have to.
COWBOYS JUNKIE
Legendary vintage shop Surfing Cowboys is transitioning into an online store on January 29. Until that date, it thought it would give you a deep discount on its mid-century furniture, clothes and surfing paraphernalia. Rather than having to move it all onto the web themselves.
CLUCKER PUNCH
Sometimes, all you require is fried chicken and beer. And hey, sometimes you’re also in Burbank. During those times, you will go to Crawfords Pass and get some spicy poultry with a beer and some boiled peanuts. Then maybe you’ll play some pool. We don’t know…
LIKE MIKE
Chef Miles Thompson just endowed Michael’s with a happy hour menu. So now you can walk straight from the beach or work or some unenviable jaunt to the Promenade and get smashburgers, lamb shoulder burritos and seared deviled eggs. How convenient that traffic flows west in the evenings.
CRUISE CONTROL
It’s Tom Cruise’s birthday party and Tom is nowhere to be seen. Somebody needs to stand in for him as he gets honored for his most memorable film roles. That’s the premise behind Tom Gun Live, where four audience members are picked to play Tom. Better shine those teeth.
DODGE CITY
Our Los Angeles Dodgers. We almost had it, but no looking back. Instead, check out the pop-up museum that’s currently open at Dodgers Stadium. It’s a place to look at historic team gear like retired jerseys, the 2017 National League trophy and World Series rings. But can it cure Fernandomania?
PERFECT MATCH
… all right here. We’d also like to inform you that there’s a new member of the Weird Internet Hall of Fame: Journey’s legendary 1983 music video for “Separate Ways.” And did you hear? Penthouse Magazine has invented a hybrid of whiskey and tequila.
Hadley Tomicki lives in Los Angeles. He is probably going nowhere on the 10 Freeway this very second.
