LA Story

In culturally artificial and intellectually vapid Los Angeles, Harris K. Telemacher has only come to the realization that he hates his life. He is in a long term relationship with Trudi, a personal shopper and image consultant who is a self-absorbed, high maintenance woman and whose primary goal in life is to climb the social ladder. And as the wacky weatherman for KYOY Channel-14 Television News despite his Ph.D. in Arts and Humanities, he has the most boring job in the city in the weather never changing, it always 72°F and sunny, the reason he has to be wacky in order to make it more interesting. His life changes when he begins to have conversations with an electronic highway signpost, which seems to want to help him find the meaning of his life. He thinks that what the signpost is trying to help him with is finding happiness in large part with his love life. He believes it has something to do with two free-spirited women he has only recently met. The first is Sara McDowell, a London based journalist he meets at a social function, she in town temporarily to write a story for the London Times on Los Angeles. As Sara to him seems unattainable despite his overall attraction to her, the second is not Sandy, Sandi, or even Sandee, but rather SanDeE*, a clothing store clerk and aspiring spokesmodel who is not shy about wanting to have a casual sexual relationship with him despite she already being in another one.
