Places like Randy’s Donuts and Tail ‘o the Pup are great pop icons in Los Angeles. I think I remember in “Mars Attacks”, the donut is zapped off the building and then rolls down the street?

On a hot summer night, with little constructive to do, some friends and I decided that we [...]
OPENS TONIGHT!!! JUNE 13, 2008
Why? you ask does Chi WOW WOW have such a fascination with MARVEL?
It all started with Captain America. Read our very first post, “Captain America to the Rescue”.
Let’s see if MARVEL can score with this movie after the success of IRON MAN. I like Edward Norton (aka. Bruce Banner). In fact [...]

Marvel Comics IRON MAN opens this weekend and I am looking forward to seeing it at one of the best theaters for sight and sound in Hollywood, The Arclight. I wasn’t an IRON MAN fan as a kid so I am curious about the story and interested to see Robert Downey Jr. play the billionaire, [...]
The search for the fastest chihuahua in America is on……and it isn’t Izzy.
We had a great time at the Los Angeles PETCO Unleashed 4th Annual National Chihuahua Races held in Montebello, CA but it was unusually hot, over 90 degrees and the chihuahuas were kind of lethargic. I’ve never seen so many chihuahuas in one [...]

Well I hadn’t until Tammie Denski from Pocketpups sent me a gift of some really cool Geocoins that she designed with her chihuahuas, Zoe and Cassie on them. I love them!!! So now I am curious about Geocaching and thinking about the design of my own Geocoin…
So what exactly is Geocaching? (pronounced geo-cashing)
Well it’s similar [...]
We often go out to A’ Float Sushi, a place in Olde Town Pasadena, where little boats float around in front of you. “The Lady” likes this one because it’s close to home, there’s instant satisfaction when starving, it’s tasty for what it is and is reasonably priced.
For me, it’s a perfect opportunity to do [...]
It happens to you when you least expect it, like finding a $20 bill in your jean back pocket. The Lady seems to always find money. Last year we were out for a walk around the block and she saw green glistening from the bushes. It was a downed mylar shamrock balloon and at the [...]
I’m a big fan of the Lava Lamp so of course I want to see Soap Lake, WA get it’s 50 ft. GIANT LAVA LAMP!
Keep your fingers and toes crossed…
For those inquisitive minds, here’s how they work.
With all the popularity of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, I really wanted to investigate whether or not Weezards actually existed in Southern California. I asked The Lady if she knew of any and after giving it much thought, she remembered seeing a sign for a Weezard, off the 210 freeway near Home [...]
ELVIS was not able to join me on this one…maybe when he gets his C-card. But, if he were on the trip, this is what he might look like underwater…
just let your imagination run wild.

The Psychic
With Valentine’s Day approaching I was on the prowl for a love potion and who better to go to than a fortune teller. You don’t need to go far to find a psychic in L.A., after all this is where famous celebrities are your psychic friends. I made my way over to Psychic [...]
