@sandiegomts.bsky.social #imperialbeach didn't realize bike lane bollards installed as part of their 9th Street Improvement project would interfere with buses stopping flush with the curb? Still waiting for their response to the ignored "No Left Turn" sign that #IBFD says is "Only a matter of time"💥

Sony Studios: Norma chatting with Leslie Howard from the window of her MGM dressing room, 1936.
Amazingly, her dressing room is intact in 2025.
Shearer, Garbo, Harlow, Hepburn, LaMarr, Garson, Garland, Loy, and several other female stars had use of the suites during the 30+ years of MGM’s heyday.

Behind the scenes of "I Love Lucy" finds Lucy, Desi, Viv and Bill in the new Pontiac convertible, rehearsing the first scene of "First Stop".

Harold Hecuba is a demanding, obnoxious and egotistical film producer appearing in the Gilligan's Island episode "The Producer"(portrayed by Phil Silvers).
A most reprehensible island visitor. He humiliated Ginger, stole the castaway's idea for a Hamlet musical and broke his promise to rescue them.
