I think people have too much time on their hands!
California is an odd state for sure. I was reading in the paper this morning that there's a bill being put forth to allow nurse practitioners to perform 1st trimester abortions so they're more readily available... *scratches head* They're already readily available. Dumb.

As long as pedestrians and drivers don't give a nazi salute back as they walk/drive past i think everybody can relax.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.

Computer chips - great.
Skateboarding - excellent.
Electric guitars - fantastic.
Baywatch - seriously?

Don't think I've ever watched a full episode of Baywatch, but it's still a huge ratings generator in syndication around the world.
Especially with your friends over in Deutschland. Sie lieben David Hassellhoff!!

It may be a ratings grabber (I used to watch it when Erika Eleniak was in it but when plastic Pam replaced her I lost interest) but i don't think its exactly Californias finest hour.
You could have gone for the Beach Boys instead.

Lifeguards running around on the beaches of Los Angeles, California = most watched television program worldwide.
Whether you or I like the show or not, that fit very well within the context of my post.
Having some fun with Six here; not running for governor or anything.

You're always such a ray of sunshine, Jim!
Ah well, we've got plenty of that here!
P.s. Won't turn this into a battle of the serial killers; New York vs. California. I'm not sure who'd come up on top and what measurement criteria would be most efficient. Just being in the running is bad enough.

Awww, you're too kind with the compliments!
Anyway, NY has the Son of Sam, Joel Rifkin, lots of mafia hits, and an active serial killer who was burying bodies in Long Island. An equally disturbing place when it comes to killers.

Yep, some bad company for sure.
But don't be overly generous, Jim.
You all get some credit for Alcala, Bianchi, and Buono too.

Let's not forget the zodiac copycat killer Heriberto “Eddie” Seda.

Please, I am a temporary NY'er here begrudgingly. Let the true lovers of the Empire State take all the credit.

Yes, add him to the long and dishonorable list! Shot his own sister or something like that. Dirtbag.

I was born in NY but I've yet to visit there as an adult. I want to do an east coast trip in the next year or so.

And a BP vest couldn't hurt.
I was born in NY also, and lived there for first half my adult life.
