sunny California

Ok, so there are some things that you have to like about California. Let's see; the beaches, the mountains, the weather. What else...hmmm...oh, fresh seafood and better produce at the grocery store. Anything else? Nope, I think that about covers it, right?

I brought that up because there are a few California things in the news right now. One is that some cities have declared bankruptcy. Anaheim is experiencing violent protests, L.A. wants to ban marijuana stores and this news worthy wtf idea hit the Internet today - San Francisco Area Officials Considering Per-Mile Driving Tax. Seems as though high gas prices have caused people to buy more fuel efficient cars, drive less and buy less gas. So they're loosing all that tax revenue.

I know that a lot people are die hard Californians because of the beaches, mountains and weather. And there are occasions when I miss the fresh seafood and nice winter weather, but the traffic, crime, smog, $$, taxes and politics would really make me question my choice to stay.
Changing the subject now. Do you remember this guy?
 

Who didn't have a crush on Chad Everett? He passed away yesterday. Sad.
