LA Observed: 3 years old, looks younger
This is how it all started on May 13, 2003:
My name is Kevin Roderick. I am an author, a journalist, an Angeleno and wear assorted other labels. I suppose I’m also now a blogger. This will be a place where I file occasional tidbits, observations and hearsay about Los Angeles. The emphasis will be on subjects I want to…
Now if Kevin had instead had written “My name is Kevin, I’m starting a social network for teens called MyObserved…” then Kevin would be a billionaire and he’d be blogging at “Maui Observed” or “ICouldBuyYourAss.blogspot.com.”
Kevin will be celebrating his anniversary the usual way, by crusing up and down Wilshire Blvd. in a rented red double-decked bus drunkenly throwing his book at passersby. Those who are hit by projectiled tomes are invited to have them signed by the author at Canters.
Congratulations Kevin.
