"Created at the Lincoln Grill in Hilo in the 1940s. Teenagers with little money asked the owners to create a dish for them. So a bowl of rice with a hamburger patty smothered with gravy was invented. Later came the fried egg." – flylice2x explains the history of the Hawaiian diner classic loco moco

"I noticed the Ishibashi farm stand in Torrance (24955 Crenshaw Blvd.) adjacent to the Torrance airport has opened for 2011. They had sweet pea flower bouquets and some firm but tasty early strawberries. ... I try to support a farmer who has been working that land for over 60 years I think." – torty

"As nothing was happening, I went behind the restaurant, where a dozen or so uniformed mariachis were playing cards. I asked about when they would next perform on the plaza, and they responded they DON’T perform there. Instead, they REPORT to the plaza in case anyone wants to hire them to go and perform at a function, etc." – lil mikey gets an education on Mariachi Plaza
