Props for the Sister City
We've never put it past ourselves to not blow our horn, so why stop now when a very cool nod has come our way.In the September issue of Los Angeles Magazine, their "Buzzcuts" section has chosen us as "web site of the month." This is indeed an honor that we are most appreciative of, and somewhat humbled by.
The exact text reads: "Web site of the month: For a crotchedy perspective on local politics that stretches beyond the grave, we find ourselves consulting mayorsam.blogspot.com, whose editor in chief, former LA Mayor Sam Yorty, is quick to remind readers that no matter how loudly he sounds off, "I'm still a dead pol."
Way to go team!

Congratulations! Well deserved. So far my favorite thread is
"MAV Wants To Be Tom LaBonge's Constituent"
The posts are funny.
I've been telling people for months that MayorSam was the best political website in LA, by far and away--so good, in fact, that other more petty bloggers have tried to either ignore it, blow its anonymity, sully its ethic, or even run to the Mayor's office to tattle on it, all of which are also tellings evidences of its strength. I hope this gets the word out even a little more.
People in business and all the people at the consulates should be reading MayorSam if they want a good grip on which way political winds are blowing here.

Question: does Shirley Bebitch Jeffe have a website?
Answer: No, but she Googlebombs in a vurrry entertaining way.
Thanks Joe!
I wonder what petty bloggers you were talking about? I'd like to (LA)Observe more of your opinions on that.
When it comes to Sherry Bebitch Jeffe (Not Shirley, Joe) she has pretty much proven her self to be clueless by failing to (LA)observe other blogs as well as the political winds in LA. She's pretty much become a joke by covering herself in fishwrap.
Your Googlebomb provided an interesting item I was (LA)observing. There is one of Roderick's articles about Villaraigosa from back in the day when Roderick was brave enough to allow comments, back around August 2004. There were even comments from a pre-Fourth Floor, pre-Sister City MEAT.
This website has helped many of us see through the fog. I appreciate your site. It has not always been a fun ride, but nonetheless it was for the benefit of all.
Cyberlady.
Congrats!
I wouldn't call you "crotchedy"...you're more loveable "curmudgeonly"
Come on, admit it: Doesn't Mailander make you want to puke?
No, Mailander makes himself want to puke with all the swill he drinks.
Actually old biddes like Roderick and Shirley make me puke.
Yes, you're right about Latte Boy Roderick and Shrill Shirley, but just be thankful they don't make insipid remarks under their photos. Maybe Shirley could grow a beard and wear a leather jacket.
Shirley would look striking in a salt and pepper beard and leather blazer
