If you didn't know, hallow is another word for saint. Halloween intially was celebrated as the eve of All Saints Day (November 1). You know, get your sinner on before you have to behave like a saint.
With this in mind, I decided to get my Google on and see what would come up if I searched, "saints in los angeles", assuming a list of saints would show up. Then I could pick one to visit and write about for my blog, CaliforniVacation: SoCal Style and as the LA Sightseeing Examiner for examiner.com.
Okay, let's just take a side bar here to mention what the process for becoming a saint is. This way you'll understand by definition a living person can't actually be a saint.
I was a little surprised to find what did show up in the top spots. The wikipedia page for Motley Crue's Saints of Los Angeles, their ninth studio recording effort released on June 24, 2008 and a link to the official music video for the title song of said recording.
The first not Motley Crue listing was in position #28, the Home Page of All the Saints of the City of Los Angeles. Finally! Something I could work with...until I clicked on the link.
Even though I couldn't use this information to write my destination blog, I was so enthralled with what the author has created that I decided to BLEEPin' blog about it here.
I loved J. Michael Walker's paintings and his stories. I found myself very easily seeing how someone might ponder the things Mr. Walker pondered and decided to document in this amazing way.
If you haven't heard about this Mr. Walker's work, I hope you just might give it a "look see". It's my further hope you will be glad you did.
