    There are all kinds of places to track exactly what the temperatures are hour by hour if you want. The crowd all were dressed as if they were watching a snow mobile race! LOL!!

    It's simple as this, if ya'll like the staggering state tax rates and the incredibly overprice housing then more power to ya'. But there are a lotta' people who are a bit more disenchanted with the land of fruits and nuts.

    18 of the last 20 years there has been negative domestic migration to the tune of 3.6 million people. That is if you care to believe the California Department of Finance. 1.4 million of those 3.6 million went to Texas where there is no state income tax. That's a real surprise, isn't it? But on the upside ya' always got the illegal aliens coming in to partially take their place which greatly contributes to the $28 billion budget shortfall of last year and most of that is due to the education and social services your friends from South of the border demand and get.

    Talkin' out my a$$? Maybe. But if I am you got your ear right up close so you can listen and hear every word!! LOL!!

    But hey, you can golf in the winter!! Ya' got that goin' for ya'! LOL!!
    Yup, talkin out your ass....I suppose you can tell a good game before you go...eye roll right there... I couldn't care less what the financial shortfalls of Cally are, if your worth a crap, you protect yourself from that stuff, you worry about, so apparently your the dumb azz that isn't covered... I notice you gave up on the earthquake/tornado bs, you were out to lunch on that one too... oh nice cut and paste work too...you've earned another eye roll....

    As far as the Rose Bowl game is concerned I said it was too bad it was an awful game, didn't I? LOL!! The he!! of it is ya' still gotta' set in traffic for hours whether it's a good game or a bad one. I know I've done it.

    Protecting yourself from sky high taxation? Hmmmmm. That sounds illegal! LOL!!

    And, that 7.0 quake that you're overdue for is nothing to worry about. Tornado's? Your house is just as demolished and you're just as dead whether it's by a storm or by being shook to little pieces or rubble. As far as the chances of one over the other? They're 100% if your in the middle of either one!

    The domestic migration numbers? Why, those people who are leavin' are just stupid! Who would want to leave such a veritable paradise?

    Now, you can roll your eyes some more.............sucker!! Hehehehe@u!

    My house is approximately 30 yrs old.. in that thirty years, it has weathers out Cally earthquakes from 5.5 to 7.2 and hasn't so much as knocked a picture off the wall...talking out your ass again? (insert eye roll here) I don't believe I have ever stated that the state was business friendly..not a single time, another reading comprehension issue you have I guess.. I am a small business owner, I'm well aware of the problems BUT the WEATHER and FAMILY still trump those issues... Look, you don't like Cally, don't come here, no one really cares...I like it here, so what, what skin is that off your nose? Any one that thinks the way you think knows little about the state and actually living here..... Where I live is more of a farming community then a city, hence were surrounded by very conservative folks.... Lots of Mexicans? Yup, so what? At least the bulk of them are legal, unlike those in the cities..... I don't know that state your in, I thought along the way you said Indiana, I'm sure its a nice state, but the middle of the winter sucks there and the middle of the summer sucks there.... our weather is more temperate, and that is the reason I like it here.... and as an added bonus, I like the Chase.... There ya have it!!!

    You're right hp. The New Madrid fault could produce an earthquake of 7.7 which is estimated will cause upwards of 3000 deaths in Memphis alone.

    The 1811 New Madrid quake caused the Mississippi River to appear to flow North for a day or so. Many river vessels were overwhelmed by the huge waves on the river and some were thrown quite a distance inland from the banks of the Mississippi. It's been debunked over the years that the big river actually flowed backwards but it fooled a lotta' people.

    Supposedly we're too far North to sustain damage or loss of life but no one knows for sure. I've talked to insurance people who are supposed to be experts on the subject and they've assured us that we're far enough North. However out in Cali nearly the whole state is in a fault line zone that extends over 800 miles North to South and the possibility of a 7.5 or stronger earthquake in California is almost 50% and the odds get better every day!

    But hey you can go golfing in the winter!! LOL!!

    Doesn't matter to me what temperature it's going to be in the strange land of fruits, nuts and incredibly high taxes or whether you can go golfin' 'cause I don't golf and don't wanna'.

    Everybody's where they wanna' be. We're all content, I reckon. LOL!!

    They ain't got enough bottle rockets to get it off the ground....they'd be like Ralphy, they'll shoot their own eye out... Its not enough to have the bomb, you have to deliver it....can you say scud missile? Yup, that be Korea... They might be able to scare Sony but they'll have to work a bit harder to get the rest of us nervous...
