Yesterday, I drove down to the Cowboys & Turbans restaurant in Silver Lake to attend a comedy-charity event that was hosted by none other than Milana Vayntrub. The event was a rousing success... The goal of this fun-filled evening was to earn $1,300 for the Greater West Hollywood Food Coalition (GWHFC)—which sought to purchase an industrial fridge in which to store food (Duh!) for the scores of homeless individuals that the coalition feeds in that part of Hollywood each day. The donation by attendees (including myself) led to a final tally of $1,600 for the GWHFC's cause. Good work!

People bought raffle tickets to win items ranging from an iPhone 6 (which was donated directly from AT&T, I believe) to a 30-minute acting class by someone whose name I forgot, to even a shirt that Milana wore in an AT&T commercial...which was autographed by retired NBA star Grant Hill (who appeared in one of Ms. Vayntrub's first AT&T ads). I devoted all of my tickets to the iPhone, of course. I didn't win it though—but it was $10 well spent. Props to Milana, the GWHFC and Cowboys & Turbans for hosting this great cause for Los Angeles!
