Lost Angels

An insider name for Los Angeles coined by Jim 'the weaz' in middle 1960's which was brought about by a realization that even angels could get lost in the smog of Los Angeles on a SMOG ALERT day.

The Barnowl Brothers left Lost Angels via Highway 101 on a roadtrip to San Freako with tickets to New Years Eve at Winterland 1969 burning holes in their pockets.

pansy play

football plays/playbook invented by John "Spot" and Jimmy "Weasel" at Redondo Union High School in the mid 60's which were comprised of quick passes that could not be defended. Probably the original "West Coast Offense" later coined and used in NFL by Bill Walsh and company.

When John and Jimmy started moving the ball downfield with the "pansy play" Larry, Dear Old Dad, Ears, Walter, David, Tyler and others could not defend it!

wolfdog

Any combination of dog and wolf, ie., a hybrid of the two. (It's a popular consensus that three parts dog to one part wolf genetically makes a "safe" wolfdog hybrid.)

When I was looking for a canine companion at the Sonoma County SPCA on highway 12 in the early 80's; a beautiful wolfdog which the attendant told me was a Timberwolf, Malamute, Siberian Husky and German Shepard mix ran to the cage front, jumped up, made eye contact and beseached me to get him out of jail.

Some call me the gangster of love
