Even though, according to Angela, they’re near impossible to find out here, this city is home to some great men.

Hey y’all, Father’s Day is this weekend. In case you’ve got the plans but not the gift, here are a few outside-the-tie-box ideas. If you wanna encourage dad to get his workout on, Equinox is opening a brand spanking new 27,000 square foot location right in the heart of The Valley—at Ventura & Balboa. The club isn’t scheduled to officially open ‘til late summer/fall but … Continue reading Dad’s Day in L.A.
Regardless of how you really feel about the holiday, Valentine’s Day arrives in all its splendid pink and red glory every February 14th. However you acknowledge it, here’s a sampling of ways to express your love, or current liaison, in the City of Angels… Surprise your special other with a local-ish getaway just 20 miles north of Santa Barbara. Book the Romance Retreat package, … Continue reading Valentine’s Day in Gloss Angeles

Like a perfect Hollywood script, the Los Angeles Lakers fought to pull it out in the fourth tonight. Our LAKERS are the NBA Champions once again! And by default, we are champions, too.
We are the fans. We don’t even make contact with the ball and yet somehow we feel we’ve got some influence over the game. Their wins are ours to celebrate; their losses are ours to mourn.
And to anyone who says Los Angeles’ fans are fair-weather, you clearly were not at tonight’s game.
(It’s fair to say that L.A. effs up every celebration with idiotic violence & vandalism though. Honestly, what is wrong with us???)
Why is Dad always such a question mark when it comes to gift giving? Either he insists he doesn’t want a thing, already has everything or is just impossibly picky. This year, make it easy on both of you and go the practical route…

Give Dad the gift of golf. Ojai Valley Inn & Spa is offering some specially-priced packages for Father’s Day this year. Get him a one-hour golf lesson with a PGA Golf Pro, a round of golf for two in 2010, or the Ojai Ultimate Father’s Day Package – including five rounds of golf, an hour lesson with a PGA pro, club fitting session and product-filled resort gift bag.
The gorgeous 18-hole course plays 6,292 yards with a par 70, rating of 71.0 and a slope of 132.
PERSONAL NOTE: This writer would rather watch paint dry than play a round of golf, but this course is so stunning that I’ve been tempted to pick up a club on more than one visit. (Of course, I resisted temptation and continued on my way to find bliss at the resort’s spa…but that’s not the point.)
