Whats it like in SoCal right now?

[pdiggitydogg]

Planning my 3rd annual SoCal trip at the end of Feb, maybe.
Just curious as to what the weather is like lately.

Is In-N-Out Burger having any crazy specials?
In-N-Out....:drool:

Well...seeing as how L.A. in particular is hell, I'd say it's about 400 degrees with gusts of lead coming up Sunset Blvd. Seriously...California just needs to hurry up and fall into the ocean.

yeah right, california is about the nicest place in america to live.

[pdiggitydogg]

Hell yeah...I love LA

Yeah, kind of depends where in California... it isn't all nice.

well obviously in the ghetto of any state is gonna suck ass, but unlike most states when you get outa of the ghetto CA is actually beautiful.

Pdigg when are you going to LA? my wife and I are going to San Diego during spring break(march 13-20th or so) to visit relatives and are probably going to head to LA as well.

Yeah, I lived there for 11 years and still go back every year. Its great... if you love inhaling smog and driving in traffic. There are good parts in the state, but I'll pass on the dense places where the jobs are.

In-N-Out is the best though :D

[pdiggitydogg]

it starts the last week of Feb
my spring break is way too early to be called anything spring

Its just an idea right now...not sure if Im really going again or not. I noticed plane tickets are the cheapest in a very long time so I thought "Hmm...Cali for a 3rd yr in a row? Do I really need it?.....Yes...I do"
So, now Im workin out where Im stayin w/ friends, possible plans, whos doin what and when, etc. Mostly, I want In-n-Out and weather over 20*...

[94_AcCoRd_EX]

Hehe, well the weather will definitely be better... what part of California are you going to (if you go) ?

[pdiggitydogg]

WestWood area...almost right down town actually, in the Co-op apts.

the reason ca has a bigger smog problem than other states is exactly the same reason people want to live there, the weather. its a very stable atmosphere over ca for the most part(good weather, and fog/low clouds) there arent very many frontal systems or tropical weather systems that move through(like in most other regions) to mix up that atmosphere and clean the smog out every once in awhile.

and well traffic is just bad in every big city.

pdigg if you do end up going out there at the same time as me pm me and i'll treat you to in-n-out.

[pdiggitydogg]

Right on dude...much appreciated!
Unfortunately, around the time that youre goin I have my semester finals and will be stuck back in the frozen wasteland of Mi (luckily on the last legs of cold)

[mylittlecivic]

mnnn cali is awesome I havent been down there for along time though. theres so many beautiful places, and disney land! lol

[pimpinprelude]

i wanna go.. i hate living here... you yankes might think this is funny, with me living in ga and all.. but i hate cold weather.. and rain.. and crap.. i wanna go where its warm and sunny all year round..

its just too hard to work on the car when its cold:|

[MegaDON]

YO anyone hating on Cali has obviously never been there, i didn't appriciated it untill I joined about a year and a half ago, i miss it it everyday!!! Id live in a ghetto in cali then the nicest part of DC or maryland!!!

[GT40FIED]

I've been there...too many times to count. I still can't wait for it to become Arizona Bay (and that's not a Tool reference...it's a Bill Hicks reference).

[AzCivic]

hmmm your right, everyone paying millions of dollars for prime CA property is off their rocker i guess.

[GT40FIED]

Yes

[AzCivic]

and which state do you like?

[GT40FIED]

Hmmm...if given a choice...I'd say somewhere in the southwest...or maybe Pacific northwest. It's nothing against the people of California really. I just have a hatred by association. I have bad memories of Cali.

[AzCivic]

i'd have to agree with the southwest, its very nice out here.

[GT40FIED]

I'll take dry heat over the kind of "oh shit somebody help me I can't breath" moist heat we get here in the summer. As for the Pacific northwest...hate the weather but I've got friends there.
