It's actually RAINING here in So Cal! Like wow, I thought the tax base here took care of such things. Kinda nice, actually, reminds me of home in Michigan...
Perhaps CS is my peering into a world with "real" people.
In this strange land called Orange County, California, for my ad, I've contemplated taking pictures with cars at the local Porsche dealer, getting a pic in front of a multi-million dollar home, and complaining that my wallet is so thick it gives me back problems.
