yes, yes it is.

Along the way I ran into folks from across the world on the bus/train, as I do everyday, its part of why I still haven't bought a car
surprisingly there was a fatal drive by in my very middle class, gang free suburban neighborhood early this morning, very shocking actually, but hey, that is why even the burbs here are integrally Los Angeles, not suburbs by any definition..
