It's ripe for a lot of things.. and I look forward to taking part in it from the ground flow at very affordable levels.. All that I find to be left here is a dwindling and expensive legacy that will be no more in the future.
Actually, uh no ... no one is noting where you are going -- because no one cares, so long as you just go ... go anywhere ... and shut up about it ... if you are real tall, don't let the door(knob) hit you on the way out -- that would hurt ... wouldn't want to slow your exit.

Why yes, it is me ... having my fun ... Meh ... you continue to post your nonsense and people continue to find you obnoxious ... and you continue to look at my posts which appear when you open CD without being signed in, but you can't let on and respond because you are playing the ostrich game.

Reminds me of the "hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil" statuettes ... except you forgot the part about not speaking.
More I think about it, kinda fun making faces at someone who can't see me !

Because I don't give up. Like I said ... I was born and raised in California. I raised my kids in California. My grandchildren are being raised in California. Some of my family and friends live in California.

California has been run by democrats for decades but whats been going on over the past decade is not traditional democrat rule ... whats going on today is radical progressive liberal ... as in socialist ... as in Saul Alinsky socialist. I'm not going to sit back and watch this once great state implode economically and then change further in the direction of socialism.

No disrespect but do you plan to give up? Or are you in favor of our state imploding and sinking further towards socialism?

I can respect that.. I guess I didn't grow up in California and my family and another set offriends don't live here.. So, given many great alternatives, I bowed out a while ago .. I fought.. definitely fought while i lived here.. tried to get friends informed, townhalls, petitions .. fought tax increases/had local discussions w/ business minded folks.. etc .. Did this also regarding our screwed up Federal govt... but after much time invested and detracted away from enhancing my own personal life .. and getting spit on for trying to inform people I gave up..

Best of luck Don9 .. you are definitely fighting an uphill battle... even among educated folk .... many of them don't know nor do they care if they can reflect on their relative prosperity and see all is well.. For how long it is well.. .. who thinks long term anyway...

Gotta make tough decisions .. If the 'home' you grew up in is longer what it used to be .. then it's not home anymore IMO..

Seriously? I've been wasting keystrokes on a self-admitted tea-bagger? F me.

I haven't given up. As a citizen of California, I get up every morning and try to effect the change I want for a positive outcome in the future. I vote depending on the issue at hand.

Rather than throw out partisan remarks and assuming that I am in favor of socialism on an Internet forum, which is hardly an accurate description of our state, why not spend more of your energy getting out there and voicing your concerns to your elected officials.

I agree with you at a certain extent that our government is incompetent, but it isn't bad as you're making it out to be.

If Don9 were really who he purports to be, he would actually be a genuine California patriot at heart -- just terribly misled ... the Don9 persona doesn't want to leave ... he loves it here, bless his little heart, he's just misguided ... he is raising a call to action! Of course it seems far more likely that Don9 is actually a liberal secret agent out to portray Tea-Partiers as kooks who can't think straight. Hence my nicknaming him "Serpico". I'll let you make the call, and: will the real Don9 please stand up?!

Heh, good one Don ... maybe though, Obama adopts what California initiates -- not the other way around ... not sayin' he does, just sayin ... you see, California has a near lifetime history of leading the nation and world in progressive thinking and behavior ... kind of a shining light ... and this originates from the wonderfully kooky people who live here ... folks who like ideas such as protecting the environment so that future generations can survive ... stuff like that.
You have an infatuation with engineers
