- Castaic, say it ain't so. Burning corpses, pet stabbings, missing teens, and now this: A company in Castaic, heretofore unknown by the SCV's most knowledgeable- manufactures and sells parts to the infamous AR-15 semi-automatic rifle. Yes, decades after Bermite closed, we have an arms manufacturer here in town. And people say Obama hasn't brought back jobs to the USA. Incidentally the unnamed firearms manufacturer came to light because a 37 year old Simi Valley man allegedly stole parts from the company and was later found to be a weapons hoarder and perhaps an impostor LAPD officer. Or maybe he just works for some Hollywood outfit, supplying them gear to make shoots look realistic. When the story broke, it was email blasted out to residents, but by late yesterday evening, Deputies were telling Fox 11 that the suspect "may not have had ill will, or wanted to target the community."

- But if down home country music isn't your thing, you could go to tonight's Senses on Main party, which is positively more Down the Rabbit Hole and nonsensical. CITY BRIEFS
- Wow that place is bad: Our own Mike D. breaks the news that a new mountain-state Mexican chain is coming to the SCV and he also alerted me to what is quite possibly the worst reveiwed restaurant in the SCV's history. SANTA CLARITA.COM
