Opening a Window.
So, I've been out of the posting groove since getting on the new schedule. It's not been impossible, but I haven't had the time and the inclination together. So I'm opening a window, and I'll just leave it open all day, adding things as I find them, then post if/when it gets full of stuff.
My favorite LA blogger is the Militant Angeleno (![[syndicated profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/feed.png)

militantla). The Militant's updates are sporadic, but they're filled with great information about the city. Today's post gives an interactive map of Michael Jackson–related locations in Los Angeles, from the Jackson's first home in Los Angeles to filming locations for "Thriller" to the former location of Captain Eo.
As for the memorial service, I'm far enough away from the Staples Center that there hasn't really been a problem, but there are certainly more helicopters going by the window than usual.
Last night, I turned on the news, and they had helicopters filming over Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills, where the private ceremony was being held. First, helicopters parked over a cemetery is tacky. Second, Forest Lawn is, itself, rather tacky in its grandiose devotion to Americana. Put that together with labels that are meant to be seen only rarely, in quiet, and you leave the anchor a bit confused.
