Who invented rocky road ice cream? What's up in Little Ethiopia? What's left to dig up at the La Brea tar pit? And what happens if I spin in the middle of all those street lights in front of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art?
Every time we do another installment in our yearlong Southern California Close-Ups series, I go out and corner more Angelenos with a video camera. Like children, parents and candidates for public office, they say the darndest things. This time, as I prowled FairfaxAvenue and Wilshire Boulevard, they supplied answers to all of the questions above, and many more.
