Come see a great night of improv with a lot of fun people, this Thursday!
My mom told me yesterday that she was supposed to get the first disc of The Wire from Netflix today.
May I present to you Sounds From My ‘Hood, Volume One, featuring my neighbor rehearsing his singing in his automobile which happens to be directly below my window.
I’m at A & R Auto in Burbank right now getting a hose repaired. I’ve had a lot of crappy cars and been to a lot of crappy mechanics. This place is by far the most honest and fair shop I have ever come across. The owner is a guy named Harry and he’s the nicest mechanic I have ever met. When I showed up today, this went down:
Harry: Ron do you like coffee?
Me: Yeah.
Harry: Do you make it at home?
Me: Yeah.
Harry: Here.
He hands me a buch of bags of Starbucks coffee.
Harry: A customer gave them as a thanks. Please, have some.
He does stuff like that all the time. On top of that, he does good quality work and never overcharges. First time i went to him for something, it took him only two minutes to fix so he didn’t even charge me. I highly recommend taking your business here rather than some corporate chain. It’s in Burbank but worth the drive.
A&R Auto 818-848-8335
Good to know, because I think my car is going to explode pretty soon.
I have some shows coming up.
