| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is. |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| De-Pimp My Ride. Or Not. |
| Wednesday, December 28, 2005 |
West Coast Customs will no longer be doing the bodywork for the cars featured on the popular MTV show, Pimp My Ride. (Aw, quit your cryin'!! Somebody else will just have to twist your brokedown hooptie.) Besides, West Coast's owner claims he doesn't want to be known for doing outrageous things to raggedy rides anymore. Huh? Now he decides this?
Per the New York Post: "We're looking at taking it to the next level, doing more of a grown-up show," West Coast Customs owner Ryan Friedlinghause told The Post. "If it wasn't for MTV we wouldn't be able to do this, but I'd rather we be known for what we really do — I really don't put coffee machines into cars."
West Coast is currently involved in several high-end auto projects that better represent what the company does, he says, including collaborating on 25 limited edition Ford Mustangs with legendary car builder Caroll Shelby.
Friedlinghause said he is in early talks for a new show featuring West Coast Customs in which his company would be shown tricking out yachts, helicopters, private jets and tour buses.  Oh wait, so you do still trick out stuff, you just don't want to be known for tricking out tor' down shit. So it'll still be like Pimp My Ride, but no longer associated with the Pimp My Ride on MTV. Right? It'll be more like Pimp My Plane, or Pimp My Pontoon. Is that it? This is a class thing, isn't it? Ol' stank ass Friedlinghause has suddenly become a snob. Why not go all out then? Why not a Pimp My Planet? You and your crew can give the earth a good shellacking and mount some Sony Playstations along The Great Wall. You know. Since you're trying to go all next level and whatnot. I'm just sayin'.
On the real though, somebody needs to do a Pimp My Pimp. Get together a gaggle of grade-A street pimps, unleash them in a warehouse full of psychedelic furs, fuzzy hats, fishbowl shoes, and velvet everything else, and let the funktastic fun begin!! It'd be like Pimps Gone Wild...on each other. Can't you see it? Pimps tricking each other out? Now that's what I'm talking about!! Who needs stupid car makeovers when you can get some glam-slam pimp-on-pimp action? Yeah, I'd watch that. Bring it on!!!
