The List

Hump This

Eat: Kitchen 24

1608 N Cahuenga Blvd, Hollywood; 323.465.2424

Fancied-up with a DJ booth and light fixtures made of silverware, this spot serves up 24/7 breakfast (Rye-crusted Vegetable Frittata, etc) and lunch (Open-faced meatball sandwich), plus a 'til-2am dinner menu (Chicken Fried Pork Chop!). There's also a full bar operating all-hours but 2-6am, when the law won't allow alcohol, and breakfast/lunch/dinner merge into the meal known as "Please God, don't let me wake up with a headache and this 64-year-old waitress".

Watch: Videogame Theater

This dirty, puppet-populated shorts series has finally found a home on the web, with never-before-seen episodes premiering bi-weekly. Coming soon: Lara Croft's sultry sorority past, Frogger's inner demons, and a rap video with characters from Asteroids, Space Invaders, and Missile Command -- expect a blistering freestyle from "Expanding Circle".

Travel: Glutton's Delight

Weekdays through Aug 28 at the Parker Palm Springs: 4200 E Palm Canyon Dr, Palm Springs; 760.770.5000

Yet another deal in the Desert: drop $199 for a weekday stay at the Parker, and they'll give you a voucher for $200 at the steakhouse, brunch spot, pool BBQ, or on the hotel's 24hr room service -- from which you can order either 10 hand-pressed Applewood Smoked Bacon Burgers or, if you're trying to impress, 37% of an oz of caviar and a bottle of Dom.

Go: Pre-Father's Day Slamball Championship

Free at CityWalk from 1:30-10pm June 7-13 (finals 1:30-11pm June 14)

Formerly a Spike TV staple, this basketball-on-steroids/trampolines tournament closes with a championship just before Father's Day. Bring your dad to show him just what could've become if only he'd bought you that trampoline, and you were an idiot.
