Now, would you please define "screwed"? Does that mean 4 hours on the road? 5 hours? I know it all depends on traffic, obviously, but... could you give me an educated guess?
thanks!

the drive normally from LA to PS is about 2 hours...in traffic, it could take you 2 hours just to get to Ontario, which is usually a 45 minute drive. It usually gets better once you get past I-15. If you don't want to miss the festivities on Friday night, then, I would recommend you leave LA no later than noon, or after 8pm, although it's a Friday night, so there will probably be some traffic in the evening. As for things to do in LA, someone mentioned Venice Beach, which is great, but is probably more interesting on Saturday and Sunday because everyone is out. You can also check out the
Peterson Automotive Museum. The Getty museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) are both good. There's also Universal City Walk. If you're into celebrities, you can check out Mann's Chinese Theater on Hollywood and see all the hand imprints. On your way to PS, if you want to get a little gambling in, you can stop by the Morongo Resort and Casino. It looks very similar to the Palms in Vegas. There's also Agua Caliente Casino in Rancho Mirage, but it's not as nice. Let me know if there is anything you want to do/see in particular and I'll let you know what we have here.
