What's most interesting about LBJ going to the Lakers is that it simply feels like another vacation for the dude. He went to Miami for four years and then came home to Cleveland.

The dark side of vintage life
Some time ago, I wondered what had become of all the public pay phones that used to dominate the landscape back in the day.
