The cult following of the Coen Brothers film resulted in popularity surge...
Spring is when we get busy here in the Ist-A-Verse. Very busy. But, after staying bundled-up indoors all winter, it's nice for us to be out, about, and collecting things to write about for you. Here's a glimpse at what's been keeping your favorite citybloggers busily away from home and out of bed. For LAist, strong winds attacked LA on the same day the Feds raided the Crips. Not to fear, though: the Japanese version...
A police chase early this morning ended with the two suspects getting away and police finding a shotgun, purse and ski masks in their car. It clearly means something, but Houstonist has no idea what it is: The guys were trying to be as stereotypical as possible while robbing people? In drag?
