phone.
4. You speak Spanish, but you're not Mexican.
5. You begin to "lie" to your friends abouthow close you are when
you know damn well that it'll take you at least anhour to get there
(see below**).

distance, takes about "twenty minutes".

7. In the "winter", you can go to the beachand ski at Big Bear on
the same day.
8. You eat a different ethnic food for every meal.
9. If your destination is more than 5 minutes away onfoot, you're
definitely driving.

Best area code: "714." Nobody likes anyonefrom the "909" because it
stinks there.

23. You have a gym membership because it's mandatory.
24. The gym is packed at 3pm...on a workday.

Yah, I know. I am too stupid to figure out that when the unions out spend all the "special interest" and "evil corporations" 3:1 while claiming they don't have the money to fight, that I am supposed to ignore that and just believe them.
CA, land of entitlement.

No, we'll see what those who bother to vote want on Wednesday.
And we can be sure that the unions will get out the vote so we should all be surprised if the unions lose any initiatives. :hammer2:

Now why did you have to go and mess up the start of a great thread. I was the list is great (and true!). I was hoping people would chime in and add more. But it got all political and s@#t.
So I will see what I can come up with off the top of my head and get this back on track.
You have to have 4 wheel drive and gps because you only drive on the asphalt and no more than 20 miles from home
You spend more money on your pets than an entire family in the midwest makes in a year
You can talk on your cell phone, apply make-up (or shave for the men) and have breakfast all on the way to work
Working out means visiting with friends at the gym for 30 minutes a day
You spend more time in your car than you do sleeping
Going out for the night mean $20 cover charges, hour waits at the door and $10 cocktails.
You have your plastic surgeon on speed dial
You have at least one part of your body "enhanced"
You know a guy that knows a guy.....
Breaking news is another car chase
That's all I got off the top of my head. Hope you all chime in.
