Look at us we live in Cali, aren't you jealous.... Um okay.... I'm going to say "Nope" to all that. (No attack though.) We admit that we're lucky. Boris isn't bragging. We've got it good here as far as the TIPSY factor goes. We've got great bars and restaurants, great apartments, great shopping and The Enchanted Tiki Room. And yet we still manage to find plenty to piss and moan about. "I drove by that amazingly cool place every day of my entire life and never took a picture. And now it's gone. Wah!!! Blan blah blah, etc. etc." I think the spirit of this thread is to remind other Southern California folks how lucky we are and to not take all of this for granted. Maybe we could cry a little less about everything and simply enjoy and try to preserve what we do have. Oh, and stay focused on tiki. Also, since when were we allowed to complain about non-informational threads again. :wink:
