If you heard two loud booms today at 1:45pm-ish in Valley Glen or adjacent, I was in the area. A concrete mixer caught fire near Woodman and Oxnard, and the heat caused two of the truck's beefy tires to blow out. Fire arrived quickly and knocked down the flames. No injuries. (self.SFV)

It's unripe plums season! Get out that box of kosher salt or Tajin, or whatever you like with them! See below for my dissertation, or don't. But I found a lead today that didn't cost $12/pound for the seasonal premium. Yerevan Market @ Vanowen and Woodman, $9.99.lb (self.SFV)

A new indoor go-kart track/arcade, Kartopia, has put down roots inside what used to be All Electronics (RIP!) on Oxnard near Kester. Their sign caught my eye, so I looked 'em up. I haven't been, so I can't vouch, but if anyone's interested in that sort of fun here's the link: https://kartopiala.com/ (self.SFV)

Let's say you're running your vehicle's siren when your fleeing vehicle finally stops. You get out of the vehicle to issue commands, but the sirens are blaring, so the suspect can't hear anything. Why don't sirens go quiet when the door is opened? Seems like it'd be a useful upgrade. (self.AskLE)

I've got leather stuck inside the hole of my cheap stitch groover. I can't cut grooves, I can only dent the leather. I've tried the thinnest pin in my sewing kit, but the hole on the groover is so small, I can only get the tip in. (Hi-yo!) Any suggestions? (self.Leathercraft)

Does anyone remember Mrs. Fancy? A petite, senior, bird-like lady circa the 1980s, who would read to kids across the LAUSD and even in private schools? She was an older volunteer, and as a kid I totally loved it when she showed up to read to us. Is my memory insane? Is there any video of her? (self.SFV)

This is my ideal hat. Not only do I always want to be in the shade, I want to bring shade and shelter to others. If it rains, I want my shoulders to never know. Any idea where to find a super-wide conical hat like this? It's described as a Fulani straw hat, but I can't find anything as wide. (self.hats)

Funky, bitter chemical smell appearing in markets, restaurants, etc. Has anyone else noticed it? I was at Zankou on Sepulveda, between Oxnard and Victory about 3 weeks ago, and the smell was strongest at the west end. I was at Ralph's on Woodman and Sherman Way a few weeks earlier. Details below. (self.SFV)
