You also get snow and cold for free. That's quite an attraction.

balamw took the words right out of my mouth. (And yes, having snow is a lot of fun!) The summers get a bit much at times (100-120 degrees fahrenheit) but it's all good as well. :)

When I see all the tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, and other natural disasters in this world, I think that cold winters are nothing to complain about - I'll take it any day. :cool:

Considering that I'm still enjoying a bit of frostbite I got years ago in a blizzard and have survived other natural disasters, I'll stay away from the snow and the cold as much as possible. :D

You must have lived in a big house. :D

Understood, to each their own! :) Yes, frostbite would suck - I make sure I'm always bundled up and layered when the weather gets that cold...

yeah, i dominate like that :p

no, i just lived in woodland hills for most of my formative years and spent less time living in the calabasas highlands, briefly in brentwood and the bit in encino. i moved around quite a bit for a while there.

by the way, the alhambra area is a primarily asian neighborhood, however it can get a bit rough, lotta 'riff-raff', but i thought i'd mention it just the same since you mentioned that interest.

Well, at least, you stayed in the same metropolitan area. I was on both coasts and in the midwest.

Riff-raff sounds kinda good to me but I know it wouldn't be. I miss being around Asians a lot, though. :(

Well, at least, I know a little bit more about the area than I did 24 hours ago. I saw some job for Taco Bell in Irvine but I'm thinking that it might not be a good fit considering how much fun I make of their SoCal Mexican food. :D I'll keep looking. It's going to be interesting.

Come to beautiful Temple City. It is near Arcadia, San Gabriel, Alhambra, and other cities nearby with lots of Asian peoples and it is very safe. It can be a bit pricey -- my 1600 sq ft 3 bedroom 2 bath is prolly worth 650k -- but it is close to downtown, pasadena, and freeways to whereever else you want to go. And if you have kids, the schools are excellent. I've lived here for about 4 years. Not much riff-raff lives here, but they do pass through. PM me if you have specific questions about the area. I process crime scenes in the county of LA and can point you out to places I wouldn't go late at night. Send me a PM if you have specific questions.

Thanks, it's definitely another point of focus. There are a few. I may end up with a headache. :D :eek:

Maybe, I'll just go there, become an actor and work in a restaurant and live on the streets. :D
