Sunday, May 27, 2007 – Drama Queens

The Drama Queen of Beverly Hills is, at the moment, one Lindsay Lohan, the young movie star. She and two of her friends were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 when it crashed on Sunset Boulevard about 5:30 Saturday morning, May 26, at Foothill.  In the car, at the scene, a "usable amount" of a drug tentatively identified as cocaine. Oops.  Her month in rehab didn't work out, it would seem – and she didn't make it home to her fancy apartment at Sierra Tower, just down the street. The intersection of Sunset and Foothill is now famous, or something – but if you're heading west on Sunset, as she was, and hang a right there, head up Foothill just a bit, and hang a left at Loma Vista Drive, you come to Greystone Mansion at its gardens. There you will find these drama queens.
