“THERE YOU GO AGAIN:”
Republican Candidate Ronald Reagan used the phrase “there you go again” while debating President Jimmy Carter. The phrase implies the opponent is engaged in hyperbole or hysterical comments. CTN was reminded of the phrase as the L.A. Times works overtime to “trash” Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt. In the LA Times latest story “Three Candidates Stand Out in L.A. Mayoral Race,” which should be labeled an opinion piece, James Rainey writes “Political pros (without naming them) believe that Bass, Raman and Miller stand the best chance of getting there.” He ignores the current polling that puts Pratt in second place. He then notes his colleague Noah Goldberg has said Miller will launch an advertising blitz to increase his profile. One might remember Goldberg did a hit piece on Pratt in the L.A. Times on April 6. CTN says to the L.A. Times “there you go again.”
MARINA DEL REY APARTMENTS:
My son said, “If you had to land somewhere, Marina del Rey was a good place to land, with the boats and the water.” He’s not wrong. What I hate most about all these apartments is the transitory nature. The people across the hall moved out. The man living above us moved out, but was replaced by a couple. At the end of every month, there are moving trucks at one of the many buildings down here, loading or unloading possessions. Where we lived on Radcliffe, most people had been there as long as we had. Even if we were not best friends, we knew each other and we were a community. No one seems to be long-term here.
