Postcards from Los Angeles: The New Year Zone

There is a dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a freeway as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle road between cloud-filled sky and shadowy ground, between holiday and holy day, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the day-off of imagination. It is Los Angeles during the New Year Zone.
