Uh, Is This Thing On...?

Making our own contribution to the wasteland of blogs in this realm we call the internet, we plant our own flag here, in this little corner that we're calling, "Dirty In Downtown L.A."

And although the title of this blog has many implied sexual connotations, realize that we simply named it knowing all you perverts would navigate here hoping to see home-grown couples porn or some kind of downtown L.A. swinger's society...

Alas, you silly sicko degenerates, you will get no such pleasure from us.  Cheap trick?  Absolutely.  And you fell for it.  Cause you're a freak.

The title is MORE fitting for the actual condition of Downtown Los Angeles... but I suppose that's not really fair to say.  The city has done a great job of cleaning up down here the last couple of years and have continued so in the year-plus we've lived downtown ourselves.  But still, sometimes it feels like I'm eating the air down here and there's always a thick layer of black pollution nestled in the moldings of the window sills in our loft.  However, you still can't beat the trapped smog clouds in the Valley in the summertime.  Delicious.  

Anyway, so what the fuck is this blog about?  

Well, we conceived it mainly with the intention of profiling life and living in downtown L.A. -- which has often been viewed as a veritable Mordor compared to the rest of Los Angeles or at best, something out of The Wire.  

We wanted to show that normal, working, smart people actually choose to live downtown and co-exist with the rest of the crack-heads, hookers, and vagrants... who I WILL say are much better company than any of the posers and party-chasers in Hollywood (that's right you fuckers, what up!!)....

....But, we'll probably end up just posting pictures and videos of our dogs, meander on about movies, and lampoon ourselves along with the thousands of other highfalutin, la-di-da yuppies down here who speak of downtown like it's Manhattan or Chicago (not you Celia, we love your blog).

SO, TUNE IN AND STAY TUNED KIDDIES....
