There's a movement afoot to name an intersection in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles for the late Forrest J Ackerman. Forry, of course, was a prominent figure in the world of science-fiction and he was the editor of Famous Monsters of Filmland, a magazine which had a surprising amount of impact on kids who grew up to become important writers and filmmakers.
The intersection's connection to Forry is kinda remote. Three of its four corners have nothing to do with him at all. The fourth is where his favorite place to dine — the House of Pies restaurant — is located.
I've dined at that restaurant — in fact, I dined there once with Forry — and I don't see how it could be anybody's favorite restaurant. Then again, I'm not a big fan of eating pies. Throwing them, yes; eating them, no.
If someone does want to honor Forry's memory, I can't think of anything better, at least in this country. Maybe somewhere in Transylvania…
