In Hollywood – look for the signs

A very long time ago, someone welded a smile to a piece of pipe on the bridge above Lake Hollywood.

One day while on a walkabout, noticed that a hex bolt had gone missing from this little-known Hollywood gem. It was a small thing, but it made a big difference.

In Hollywood – try to fill gaps

He worried that if no one knew it was even there, how would it ever get fixed? So Banjo rummaged through the nuts and bolts section of Tashman’s Home Center until he found a similar hex bolt.

In Hollywood – be a little nuts

From there, he hit up Hosep’s Body Shop, where a friendly and wonderfully talented welder shaved down the top surface.

In Hollywood – be smooth > but not too smooth

Then, Banjo found a third generation Hand Engraver at Gerard Leon Fine Jewelry who was amused by his plan and confident she could finely etch his Tasty Nuggets signature on the surface of the clean hex bolt.

In Hollywood – have your groove on

After a little touch up work for added dimension, Banjo headed back to the reservoir for a discrete installation of his tastiest nugget of all – a smiling Tasty Nuggets badged face overlooking Hollywood with the Hollywood Sign majestically perched in the background. Bam -give the drummer some! It remains there to this day.

In Hollywood – your smile is everything
