Eye-Level Insomniac

Opting to leverage my soul-crushing insomnia into journalistic opportunity, I wandered out from Casa del Todd and walked three blocks north to Vroman's to scope out the scene of tomorrow's PlayStation 3 iPhone Halo 3 Bill Clinton.

By 3:30 a.m., 26 souls awaited His Presence on the Boulevard sidewalk. Some were collectors, others just wanted to bask in His Mojo and the only person I met actually from Pasadena admitted to being paid $40 by a friend to get a book signed.

From El to Arr: Bob and Janice of Santa Clarita wait with Joe Freedman of Cypress and Ernie Soto of Ontario. They arrived around 9 p.m.
