Deliverance, in Glendale

I like Glendale. I like it, because its scowling Armenians remind me of the folks back at home. And because you see real-life old people, unlike in W. Hollywood, Silver Lake, Echo Park and Mt. Washington, where everyone is either on a reality TV show, trying to get on a reality TV show, or an aging hipster couple with a two-year-old. But today, in the middle of Glendale, I walked into a scene from "Deliverance." Well, not quite. But the white couple running the store was definitely missing a few light bulbs, teeth and senior high school classes. It was awesome. The walls were covered with tacky award plaques for things like winning the sissy race. The only thing missing was a singing fish!
