I <3 California

Lately I have been asking myself this question, "Kristi, why are you SO obsessed with California?" Well, Kristi, here are some answers I have come up with:

-The Governator: What's one part Governor, one part Terminator, and six parts AWEsome? Arnold! I wonder if he will go back to acting when he finishes pretending he knows anything about politics and the English language.
-Police Helicopters: Tell me, how do you know your safe at night? Here we have the soothing hum of a helicopter flying over head to tell us we our safe. What does everyone else have? Silence. How will they even know that there is a man with a gun in the neighborhood?
-Smog: I do not have to take any mineral supplements, one breath does the job.
-Traffic: Why would anyone want to go 65 mph anyway? That does not sound at all safe to me. 15 mph will get you where you want to go quite safely.
-Gas Prices: If it would cheap everyone would buy more. Ever heard of going green?
-The dirty looks strangers give you if you make eye contact: I know I am suspicious of anyone who smiles at me.
-Rolling Blackouts: "What is a rolling blackout?" you ask. It is when the electric company decides that we, as a state, are using too much electricity and turn our power off. It's there way of solving the "energy crisis."
-Spanish: I have been to things where it is the ONLY language spoken, English is overrated anyway.
-Star Bucks: We may not be where it started but without us that chain would not exist. I really appreciate it when I have two star bucks to choose from in the same parking lot.

I could use a police helicopter every once in a while. We only get the re-runs of police chases on America's Most Wanted. You guys get to watch all that stuff in Real Time! No fair.

There are three things that I like about California;
1) Driving in to California meant I was driving out of Tijuana.
2) It apparently makes my brother-in-law, sister-in law, niece, double-cousin-in-laws, and first-cousin-once-removed-in-law happy enough to stick around, so I guess it can't be too bad.
3) Only a minority (say...48%) of the voting poulation are destroyers.
