If you look at the precise color break between grey and pink right across my living room window, you can see exactly where the quittin' bell rang on Friday. That's not my garage door, by the way, mine's around the corner.
Also very curious, speaking of gas prices... there's a Shell station a few blocks south of the Petersen Museum on Fairfax and Olympic that is always quite expensive. This Saturday, as I was leaving the museum and driving past, regular was $5.79 a gallon, and premium was $5.99. This station is something of a conversation piece in the area due to its prices... maybe it's a front for the mob and they don't really sell gas? There are stations a mile in either direction on La Brea and La Cienega that have normal prices (well, normal for L.A.). I guess if you had to get gas there, it would be out of sheer panic that you wouldn't make it that extra mile.
