I Hate Southern California

Hence the name,
Protourist.

It is all very clear to me now....:D

I love the classics. My son Killian shocked me one day being 11 yrs. old said when he saw a late '60's american made muscle car genre, forgot if it was a mustang or a camaro, he said, "You gotta respect the classics." I am not sure where he got that from, but it kind of blew me a way. He may end up being as nostalgic as I am

The problem is, when I go to SoCal to visit my folks in it I get plenty of "you're really trying to conserve gas aren't you" comments from the locals.:thumbdn:

You're son is right, perhaps you should send him up here, we can use more smart people.:D
 
You know Protourist, I am not sure how I would respond to anyone telling me what to drive, or commenting about what I drive in America. I want to print out that motivation poster about Nothing speaks of environmentalism like a trunk full of Nikel Metal Hydride batteries. People really need to get a grip, wake up and think!. You should ask them sarcastically if you should send your car to the dump and take up land fill space, so you can buy a new car, one that during manufacturing has burned up a google amount of carbon units, credits, cookies, whatever. Tell them you are conserving precious resources by driving an old car!,,.... A well made car! I would ask them if they knew how really dumb they sound when they ask you that.

If you find yourself on the 405 in Culver City, and fancy a good pastrami, the word is Johnny's.

Johnny's is great, but next time I go down to visit friends I'm stopping by The Hat. Excellent pastrami combined with their chili cheese fries combine for a wonderful, heart attack inducing experience.
 
Southern California is great, you got the sun, snow, stars and the http://www.stuffedsandwich.com/ which serves one of the best selection of brews anywhere, along with surf and gorgeous sunsets, what more could you ask for?

As an expatriate* of the PRK, all I can say is that Southern California would be great if it wasn't in...............California. :p








*Born and raised in LA. Lived in Goleta for 28 years. Moved to AZ 5 years ago. 2nd smartest thing I ever did.:D

The Hat is just awesome. Great sandwiches and burgers too. :thumbup:
 
The Hat does make good pastramis, I bring the rolaids, but it is well worth it. I just ate there this last week at Simi Valley location. Took the kids, and they asked why went to McDonalds when we could eat there?
