Links Round-up 12.6.12

December 6th, 2012 by Arturo

“I was sitting at work; I got a phone call from my car company, from the loan. And they asked me if I planned on going forward with the bankruptcy that I’d filed on June 22nd. This was completely out of the blue, I hadn’t gone to the court to file, so I had no idea what they were talking about,” Azibo said.

He rushed to the federal courthouse in downtown Los Angeles and asked whether someone had filed for bankruptcy under his name. A clerk handed him a folder with documents containing signatures that were not his.

The report listed that he was single and that he owned a Honda Accord, a property in San Diego and another in Carson. None of that was true. He discussed this with one of the agents at the bankruptcy court-and soon they realized that someone else had filed for him. Unfortunately, the court told him, his case is typical.

    That was one of the best murals in the city. I can’t believe that someone would disrespect it, and the artist, by tagging it. There are better ways to clean up graffiti than with black paint.

    Most of them are unsightly and tacky (the examples of “ugly” murals are actually infinitely better than the obnoxious ones that you can see on the MFL on the way to and from 69th St).

    So many people misinterpreted that NYTimes article. I tried to get people to understand what they were trying to say but hardly anyone got it.
