Last night, on a little Craig's List adventure (the very desk I'd been looking for! given away free! just come to Hollywood and find it next to the dumpster!), I ventured into the Hollywood Hills near the Hollywood Bowl to find the aforementioned desk, on a street called High Tower. This is not a street named after someone called "Hightower" that was accidentally split into two words. No this street is named after a high tower.
Think Rapunzel, think a hunchback but without the bells, think - I have come to learn - of "The Long Goodbye", or think (as something similar) of that house in "Dead Again." I think this must be something particular to the Hollywood Hills (along with that heady, intoxicating perfume of ancient jasmine bushes), an elevator, housed in a dizzying tower, probably just for the effect. You must love this, you must.
