i agree in some senses....but my opinion of overpass writing is and always will be 'my ass aint goin up there, good shit'
i guess its something you gotta get good at, im sure the first times hanging over an overpass you aint gonna be the shit
but in LA the overpasses get killed..bad...with pieces...but shit i aint writing on melrose and normandie on a fwy lmao i dont even like accidently getting on the 101 much less being there on purpose, couldnt imagine not being in a car right there

ive been thinking about hitting central cali on the 5 on those signs and some of the abandoned storage bins/water towers but its just a fucking hassle to park either on the 5 offroad or park at a gas station and walk back, and im usually properly faded at that point and just wanna keep driving, but i think about it every time. ive hit every chevron that didnt have a cop waiting at it, though. but eventually im going to get some of those signs and trailers and shit. im guessing someone lives out there, but maybe someone did stop and write like ive been thinking about.
ill be up that way in a week or two actually, might do it then but i should leave at like 1am.

UPDATE
LOS ANGELES -- "Buket," the daredevil tagger who gained notoriety for his brazen daylight "bomb" of a sign over the Hollywood Freeway, could be headed to state prison.
Authorities said today they found fresh evidence of his tags in downtown and South Los Angeles.
Los Angeles County sheriff's transit investigators did a probation compliance search at graffiti artist Cyrus Yazdani's residence this morning after they found new "Buket" tags on a South Los Angeles business, a mural on the Hollywood Freeway and the concrete lining of the Los Angeles River, which authorities said had been one of his favorite targets.
Sheriff's officials said that when they interviewed Yazdani, he was in possession of scribers, which are used in tagging. He also had paint splatter on his clothing. He was later detained and brought to the Century Regional Detention Center, where he is being held without bail on a parole violation.
In December, a judge sentenced "Buket," whose real name is Cyrus Yazdani, to 10 months in county jail, 256 hours of graffiti removal and five years' formal probation after he pleaded guilty to nearly three dozen counts of felony vandalism. He was released from jail for credit for time served but faced the prospect of three years in state prison if he violated the terms of sentence.
The case stemmed from a tagging spree between 2005 and 2007, during which, authorities said, the 26-year-old San Jose State University graduate slapped his tags on buses, freeway walls and overpasses as well as the concrete lining of the Los Angeles River.
Yazdani became something of an Internet sensation when he plastered his "Buket" bomb 20 feet above the busy Hollywood Freeway -- vandalism that was captured on videotape and posted with a rap soundtrack on YouTube and numerous tagger-related blogs.
Another daylight attack, which was also videotaped, appeared to show "Buket" applying his moniker to a Metropolitan Transportation Authority bus as passersby and passengers watched in surprise.
A YouTube video that captured both tagging exploits has more than 450,000 views. But the notoriety also got the attention of sheriff's transit investigators, who last May arrested Yazdani.
Sheriff's officials said they had evidence that Yazdani had marked hundreds of freeway overpasses, concrete walls and transit buses across the state and southern Nevada.
Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies and officials with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers identified at least 20 "Buket" scrawlings along a stretch of the river spanning a couple of miles, causing an estimated $60,000 in damage.

LOS ANGELES -- A notorious YouTube graffiti vandal known as "Buket" was sentenced today to three years, eight months in prison after accepting financial responsibility for a new spate of damage.
Cyrus Yazdani, 26, who used the moniker “Buket,” was on probation after pleading guilty in December 2008 to 32 felony counts of vandalism when he was rearrested May 21.
He was charged in May with five new counts of felony vandalism over $400.
Investigators discovered graffiti with his moniker on the 7th Street Bridge, the Cesar Chavez Bridge and in the 4200 block of South Broadway, said Deputy District Attorney Deann McCarthy.
The most recent incidents occurred between Dec. 22, 2008 and March 31.
On July 30, Yazdani pleaded no contest to one count of felony vandalism and accepted responsibility for the four other counts.
Together, the five counts totaled $14,174. In exchange for his plea, the other four vandalism counts were dismissed today.
Superior Court Judge James Bianco today imposed the three year prison sentence that was suspended following Yazdani’s plea in December.
Judge Bianco added another eight months for the no contest plea in July.
Judge Bianco also ordered him to pay $117,196 in restitution, which includes $103,022 that he still owes in restitution from the December plea.
McCarthy said Yazdani has only paid $400 to date from the December case.
Yazdani was taken into immediate custody to begin serving his state prison sentence.
