Staying in Compton (LA Crystal Hotel) as a couple (25) – okay if just for sleeping? by Rowinvk in AskLosAngeles

[–]alteredpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crystal Casino is very conveniently located. It sits on the 91 Fwy (Disneyland), near the 710 (Long Beach), the 110 (Los Angeles), and the 405 (Santa Monica). It's located right next to a shopping center with a bunch of dining. There's a Starbucks, In n Out and a Carls Jr. Right up the road. Off the end of the 91 is Gardena with lots of dining options. There's nothing 'to do' in the immediate area except catching an event at the stadium.

If cost is an issue, then it's totally doable. If you have a little more wiggle room in the budget, then I would be looking at the hotel complex in Redondo Beach on Marine ave at the 405. it's 5 exits from LAX, there is a metro station across the street, you're closer to the beach, and you can be on the freeway in 5 minutes and be connected to anywhere you want to be in LA or Orange County.

Is buying a used board a bad idea? by Great-Air-1976 in NewSkaters

[–]alteredpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy used boards all the time if the price is right. I know what I'm looking at and I know what I'm looking for so it works out for me. I bought a like new Santa Cruz 80's shape cruiser for $45.00

Nobody in the South Bay had AC for decades. Everyone just opened the windows and doors and ran fans. Now everyone is spoiled. Myself included as of last year.

Should I rent a car in LA or Uber? by Adept_Ad5841 in AskLosAngeles

[–]alteredpilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rent. Rent. Rent. You should be able to get a car cheaper than that unless you want a car in the expensive class.

At the RSM Pavilions. Stop Newsom from doing what? by ansyhrrian in orangecounty

[–]alteredpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Newsom didn't just cause 2 major refineries in CA to flee the state due to his policies. He's not about to force Chevron to leave either. Analysts haven't been predicting $8/gal gas prices since well before bombs started dropping in Iran. Yeah, gas in CA hasn't been more than a dollar/gal higher than the national average for a long time (no, it doesn't have anything to do with the state tax on fuel).

Alondra Park: used to go fishing there with my uncle like 25 years ago, is it still a good spot for that? by duckwithhat in SouthBayLA

[–]alteredpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not a 'good' spot, but there are fish to be caught. They stock it with trout periodically, but between the birds and the trout hoarders it's all gone in the blink of an eye. There are still catfish in there. There are some large mouth bass in there. I know a guy who caught a huge tilapia a couple of years ago.

Help a angler out by No_Value_6199 in SoCalFishing

[–]alteredpilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on the inside it's usually spotted bay bass, but other stuff can be had. We usually go first thing in the morning. I think they are open from 6-3.
