I have no explantion for the recent rise again of gas prices in Southern California.  Gas prices are up 7.7 cents from last week.  The only explanation AAA has is that in the summer time the gas has an additive that supposedly makes gas cleaner that is not used in the winter.  WHO KNOWS.  Interestingly enough none of the candidates have addressed the cost of gas in any of the speeches.

For those that live in Southern California, you have probably come to know the story of Dane Williams.  He was a young man who worked for Hurley Sports.  Williams went to San Diego as part of a convention hosted by Hurley.  He was last seen by his co-workers at a bar and then found dead in an alleyway.

An autopsy has proven inconclusive regarding his death.  I never had the oppurtunity ...

According the AAA of Southern California the average price of gas is $3.54 in Orange County up .54 cents from a month ago.  I am not sure where AAA is purchasing their gas from the cheapest I have seen gas is still probabaly a nickle higher.  What is astonishing to me is the our learned President is unaware that gas prices are so high.  The man is from the state ...

If you are a young star and nothing much is happening in your life except for partying this was the year to be arrested for a DUI.  Lohan, Hilton and Richie can all lay claim to fame to this walk of shame.  It seems that Mischa Barton was feeling left out and needed her name in the headlines before the year ended for a DUI arrest.

Congratulations Barton.  Arrested for driving ...

While the weather outside maybe breezy and cold the sales at the mall are lukewarm at best.  A quick trip to the mall confirmed this.  There was plenty of parking and the shops were not crowded.

Store owners at are quite disappointed by the action at the cash register. Traditionally the day after Christmas is a busy day with lines and plenty of rings at the cash register.  But this year is ...

Georgette Klinger Spa was located in the Saks wing at South Coast plaza.  There was an article today in the newspaper that the spa closed, due to bankruptcy.  At this time it is unknown if all of there spas have closed or just the one at South Coast.

The Miley Cyrus (Hannah  Montana) fan club is suing the singer because their fan club membership did not get them the privilege they expected.  Fans thought they would be able to get priority access to concert tickets.  Not so.

Last week, Hannah had two sold out concerts in the Southern California area.  Fans complained that there are more members in the club than tickets that were available. Club membership is $29.95. The ...

South Coast Plaza had its Christmas tree delivered yesterday.  All 96 feet of it.  I am not sure what the mall will be doing with a Christmas tree for the next month.  The tree lighting ceremony will occur on November 26th.

Who knows, maybe the tree will be trick or treating.  What happened to Haloween and Thanksgiving?  Do we not get a chance to celebrate those holidays first, before launching into ...
