Hollywood Boulevard

ANOTHER REASON TO GET THAT COVID VACCINE SHOT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Never thought we’d live to see the day when Hollywood Boulevard is deserted. Last year at this time it was alive with shoppers, skateboarders, giddy tourists, and nightclub kids. Not to mention the people dressed up like Batman, Superman, Cher, or Johnny Depp the pirate, eager to pose for a photo with you. Traffic was always in gridlock thanks to tourist busses, cruising lowriders, and sightseers. Now Hollywood Blvd looks like the aftermath of chemical warfare. Shops and restaurants that survived demonstrations and looting, were ordered closed by the government during Covid and boarded up. Hopefully this memorable street will return better than ever – and so will we.

EVEN SUPERMAN IS SUFFERING FROM SOCIAL ISOLATION

Back in the good old days we had some fine specimens of Superman, Johnny Depp’s Pirate of the Caribbean, Frankenstein, and many other famous characters hustling on busy Hollywood Boulevard. Tourists paid them lots of money for photos, so everybody went home happy. This sad looking “Superman” is a sign of the times. Neither his physique nor his costume is very impressive – and he’s making a feeble attempt at selling face masks, not photos! (note that customers are few and far between)
