Welcome to My House!

[Tuesday, October 13th] I was asked to co-host Bread & Butter at My House (Hollywood) this past Tuesday alongside JL Production and the Collective. If you haven't been there on a Tuesday you're missing out! Despite the rain, it was crackin' by 11pm with a red carpet and paparazzi outside for actress/model Lisa Raye's (Player's Club) birthday celebration.

Manny Pacquaio x 5&A Dime T-Shirt!

So, as some of you may have noticed we have made it our tradition here at 5&A Dime to create a new t-shirt for each Manny Pacquiao fight. This fight is no exception, so, in anticipation for the Pacquiao/Cotto fight on November 14th we made this evolved version of our earlier Pacman tee. This shirt features Pacman mopping up ghosts from around the globe. You saw him sweep up the Brit, he’s know as the mexi-cutioner, and now he will feast on Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico. We hope you enjoy this tee as much as we do.

FYI: I'll be hosting a few events out in Las Vegas the week of the Pacquaio fight so get the dates off and meet me in Sin City because its gonna be EPIC!

P.S. I miss the 5&A Dime family! 143!

Paranormal Activity at Archlight w/ Usual Suspects

[Sunday, October 11th] Sunday we all mobbed out to the Arclight in Hollywood to finally watch Paranormal Activity. Before the movie we had dinner at 25 Degrees at the Roosevelt Hotel with the Usual Suspects LA. 25 Degrees is known for their burgers and the Entourage photo of the guys in the booth.

We took two back to back shots of Hennessy at the bar before heading into the movie.
143!
I've been wanting to see Paranormal Activity to find out what the hype was all about. Overall it was an alright movie. It has its scary moments but its hard to just watch two people on screen the entire time, but I can understand it could mess with peoples minds and make people paranoid when they sleeping. The creepy part is that its filmed in San Diego and it seriously looks like a neighborhood straight out of PQ. Rating: C+

Fun times... Time to head over to Guys & Dolls!

Introducing the Cast of the Green Castle!

For nearly two years I've lived a pretty nomadic lifestyle going back from city to city. Although I've been wanting to buy a place in LA, I still need to get my financial situation organized before doing so. In the mean time, it think its best for me to finally start renting a place. It just so happens that my close friend Anne Marie has a family friend that is trying to rent out their 4 bedroom house in Silver Lake. So I went to take a look at the house this past Sunday with my future roomies:

+ Anne Marie Cotijas aka the Queen

+ Mark Villa aka Chachy aka Man in the Iron Mask

+ Mark Marcelo aka the Musketeer

+ TK Nguyen aka the Jester

The house is unassuming at first glance, but once you walk in, it's very charming and cozy with a welcoming feel. The neighborhood is relatively quiet and the neighbors are nice. Silver Lake is located in between Downtown LA and Hollywood so everything is close by too. The only downer is guest parking... =( Check out the place!

Welcome to the Green Castle:
Cross your fingers for us! Hopefully I'll officially be an LA resident by November 1st!
