Los Angeles: 10 Things to Do

Scientology's not scary! In fact, if you come to the Celebrity Centre just to have the decent Sunday brunch in the outdoor portion of this beautiful former hotel, no one will even bother you about Scientology stuff. But it's still fun to explore the rest of the place after brunch, get your e-meter read and maybe even watch the Scientologists' 20-minute movie. I sometimes take pieces of the stationery they keep by the bathroom and write letters to my parents — just to freak them out.
