Time to start thinking about November's Cat Square. It will commemorate Mr. Cornflake. He lived in the Rustic Canyon neighborhood of L.A. He was a great cat. #TheCatJoyProject

Great movie. Great theater.
People standing outside the Vista theater. The neon sign is illuminated. There is a beautiful sunset in the background. The movie showing is Paul Thomas Anderson’s one battle after another.
