Yesterday was the parade celebrating the Lakers’ victory over the Celtics in the NBA Playoffs. Police estimated 65,000 fans showed up. I took Metrolink up to Los Angeles for the day and watched the parade from the same spot in front of the Convention Center that I did last year.

After a two-month hiatus, my updates return just like the Clothier Bells’ ringing (the reactivation of which, probably inspired by all of the tuition-payers visiting for Parents’ Weekend, still has not fixed the chimes that are randomly omitted or the hour-long daylight savings time lag).
