We're just such fans of Adventure Time we're putting it at the top of the weekly this week, combined with our favorite video game art gallery and production company , Iam8bit, we await the results. The details are a bit shady, but if Pen Ward's there be sure to give him a hug and a new hat, he has but two.
Let me just say it's tough being a Jew this Yom Kippur with all these great events on Friday night and Saturday.
CicLAvia will return to the Heart of LA on October 5 from 9:00 a.m -

All you need to do is show up somewhere along the route, travel any
direction you like by foot, bike, board or other non-motorized
transportation, and then have fun!
