Ken L.
i could just never understand why, if walking four hours a day was so important to him, he didn't live in a place where it might be pleasant to walk.
Ken L.
instead, he trudged endlessly through a stucco hellscape of car exhaust and honking horns, with fucked up cracked and rotted sidewalks when you could even *find* a sidewalk
Ken L.
i used to wonder about the ratio of raw carbon emissions he breathed every day vs. whatever health benefits of the exercise
Ken L.
his lungs must've been shot to fuck, breathing that poison smog all day long
Basart
jebus, he could have walked through the franklin and silver lake hills, por ejemplo, rather than Glendale/Rowena/Hyperion
Ken L.
echo park, griffith park ... lots of decent (not good, but decent) areas with a few trees and an actual trail not overrun with fucking semi trucks and mile-long buses and shit cars full of mutants and slobs
Ken L. it is a testimony to the emptiness of life around there -- a hundred blog comments all saying "jeez too bad i never spoke to him only saw him from my car windshield, sitting in traffic my whole fucking life, for nothing."
