the world's first ski race

Every body knows this, except maybe a couple of newbies, but it's on
topic and I'm gonna mention it again.

The world's first ski race was held right here in California.
Not Scandinavia. not the Alps, not even by Dartmouth, but here, on
longboard skis, with timing, awards, and plenty of beer.

There are no newbies, asshole. They figure out that you are a psychopathic pathological liar, complete fraud, and dickless coward, and they leave.
Thanks for kissing Horvath's ass today. You proved my point, dumb****.

Everything is better in California except the government.

The weather sucks. The place is a state-wide insane asylum. The
prices are insane. Traffic is nutso. Gangs roam the streets.
Apparently you've never been anyplace decent, like Detroit.

The only place good in California is Disneyland. And you need a
backpack full of money to go there.

Vote for Romney. Repeal the nightmares.

It doesn't count. They didn't have rum.

Pheidippides was the first marathon runner, (well according to Herotodus)



Wikipedia:
"The Birkebeinerrennet run has been held since 1932"

The Gold Country longboard ski races since 1855 according to local
newspaper morgues.

And you've been a pathological liar and coward since the day you were born. So ****ing what?

Depends on where you are. Except for 90% humidity all the time, you can
probably find a place in California with weather you like.

The place is a state-wide insane asylum. The
prices are insane.

For heavily-taxed stuff like gas, telephone, electricity, local produce
and non-food purchases, yes. It's mind-boggling that people can buy
California fruit cheaper in other areas of the country.

OTOH, we are all fantastically wealthy and don't have to care about
stuff like sniff prices.


Traffic is nutso.

Traffic is heavy; PEOPLE are nutso.

Gangs roam the streets.

Location location location. Just because a kid LOOKS like a gang thug
it doesn't mean he isn't an honor student who does community service
because he wants to and not because it's a condition of his parole.

Apparently you've never been anyplace decent, like Detroit.

I've been to Detroit, but back in the 80s. Is it like Newark? We took
an accidental turn early one Sunday morning and ended up in Newark. I
really felt uncomfortable, although I figured that evildoers probably
don't get up early on Sunday morning -- would you if you didn't have to
go to church?

The only place good in California is Disneyland. And you need a
backpack full of money to go there.

Disneyland sucks, although some of the rides are fantastic. The
hang-gliding-over-parts-of-California ride was great and I felt really
cheated that it was so short. Half an hour would be nice...

Magic Mountain has better rides. It also has the second ugliest
clientele of any "attraction" in California -- first ugliest is the Los
Angeles County Fair.

Everyplace I've been to in California had sucky weather. LA was too
hot, and SF was too cold. The wind was always from the North and the
crappy brown beaches were cold. Only in Napa Valley was there decent
weather.

No it's not mind boggling. Even their wine is cheaper in other parts
of the country.

Ever drive in the rain in LA? You don't.

The evildoers you saw were probably up all night.

I always liked Knott's Berry Farm. They sell beer there.
