People have been talking about dividing the state of California even when it was part of Mexico! The state is really two states—Northies are pretentious and snobs, Southies are layed back (No southern Californian cares if you call Los Angeles LA—but try to call sin city by the bay Frisco and see what happens). In the south we call the northern Californians “Soggyheads” (Because the rain has softened their brains). Divide the state into North and South California. Divide it at Santa Maria. South California’s Capital could be Santa Barbara—Their court- house even looks like a state capital! Our state motto could be Kowabunga! The state rodent Micky Mouse. Maybe we should unilaterally declare South California the 51st State and appoint Mel Gibson as governor until elections could be held. The best day to do this action: April 1st. April Fools Day.
