I have only one question for her? Where is the blood?

She should have felt herself bleeding.

But otherwise her actions were commendable with regard to saving her life if she had been shot.

I once considered re-locating to Atlanta or Chicago (I have relatives in both places) but I just can't bring myself to leave California.

Me too especially Chicago! I've there five or six times and can honestly see myself living there. Grant it, financially it's hard to live in CA, but the only things that are keeping here is that it is my birth state and the weather. SF weather consists of fog, being cooler than everywhere else, and only a handful of over 80 degree days is all that my skin can tolerate. The heat and humid everywhere else in the country does a number on my skin and makes me miserable. So short of moving to Antarctica or Canada, I'm staying put for now. Go Giants! biggrin

If they could do something about those winters, I'd be in Chicago tomorrow.

Too many health nuts and shaved dicks out there. And they were one of the first states to start these rediculous anti smoking laws in public, even down to nightclubs. That shit spread like wildfire to the rest of the nation. That's kinda ass backwards. Hell, with all them freaks out there, you would think anything goes. lol

But I've always wanted to move to San Francisco or LA though. New York City, LA, San Francisco....that sounds like a lot of fun. Back in the 1980s, I thought Chicago was the shit until a lot of friends of mine (damn near everybody down here has relatives in Chicago) told me that Chicago was nothing but a bigger ass version of Jackson. lol

I think you'd LOVE San Francisco and Berkeley

Lots of the Midwestern states have a Southern type of lifestyle. Might be because MOST of them moved out of the Deep South and even the Upper South.

And what's funny is when they come down here, they brag...."You don't want to fuck with me, I'm from Chicago"....like that's supposed to scare us. It was so funny though, a good friend of mine who was formerly from Chicago used to say that to us all the time. Well, he let a friend of his that he had known for years come down here and live with him after she broke up with her husband. When he finally got tired of her freeloading, he told her she would have to get a job or leave. She got mad and told him...."You don't want to fuck me me, I'm from Chicago". He was stunned with a startled look on his face and hollered...."Bitch, I'm from Chicago too!!!!". We never let him forget that incident. lol

Virginia had great weather. Warm weather in the summer and fall, snow in the winter, thunderstorms (which I love)....ahh I remember in the spring, there would be this really pleasant breeze, and in my front yard we had this tree that would bloom pink flowers around April biggrin

ahh...I picture this is where I'll retire. smile I'm a yankee so ...I don't think I could go too south but I'm sure as hell getting sick of the snow! I don't want to eliminate it but...cut back on it alot would be nice. smile thanx

There are a lot of ex-Northerners migrating into Virginia. Lots of ex-New Yorkers in Central Virginia (Richmond metro-area) and plenty of Pennsylvanians & New Jerseyans in Southeastern VA (Norfolk/Virginia Beach area). Shorty, it does snow down here, but not as often or intensely as in the Northern states. So when we have a crazy snowpocalypse like last December, things can get a bit hairy.

of all the cool things that make CA unique, Fresno is the city that could be anywhere that has McDonalds and freeways.

It's not that it is horrible (other than the summer heat) but it is totally ordinary.

What's a good place to move to? Where rent is like $890 a month? I thought about Bakersfield.

$890 for how big? See, that's the thing, Fresno is good for rent prices! Plus it's not a terrible place to live, it's just not unique or interesting. But Bakersfield is definitely no improvement!

You're lucky to rent a room in someone's home in SF/Berkeley/Oakland for $890 per month...
