The Idiot, always an early adopter of technological and social innovations, jumped on the masking bandwagon at the outset of the pandemic in March 2020. Here’s an incomplete history of his close relationship with a number of masks.
The Idiot wasn’t in Los Angeles for a week just to walk on beaches and hike up hills. He also dropped into Hollywood for meetings on two film/TV projects and diligently captured cultural and social innovations and nuances wherever he went. Here’s are some L.A. sights that amused the author of The Idiot and the Odyssey trilogy of travel narratives recounting his 20-year walk around the Mediterranean Sea.
Where does The Idiot walk when he’s weary of trekking the dramatic landscape on the Pacific Ocean in Northern California? He heads to Los Angeles and hikes along the sandy beach from Marina del Rey to Pacific Palisades and then onto uphill trails in the hills.
The Idiot often takes a five-mile round-trip morning stroll along Scenic Drive above the Pacific Ocean into the tiny town of Trinidad, CA (Pop: 345) and back. Here are just a few things that he often fails to notice.
The Idiot — a long-time supporter of the annual Walk To End Alzheimer’s in Redding, California — invites you to become a member of the award-winning The Idiot and the Odyssey team which has already raised $10,000 for the charity in 2021 to advance research and provide care and support to those facing Alzheimer’s. The goal: $12,000.02 to beat the $12,000.01 he raised in 2017.
The Idiot stepped in as a substitute male parental figure for Baby Gaga, his 3.92-year-old granddaughter, and Baby Gogo, his 1.31-year-old grandson, when their actor father left Hollywood for three weeks in August to shoot a film starring Morgan Freeman in Mississippi.
