I went to Texas a few times on business. The weather was hellish and uninhabitable...They said I’d get used to it...I told um I wouldn’t be there that long...
Good news!
The more liberals that leave California, the better!
yeah if you like that sort of thing
snow is FUN
Fun like a broken tooth with the nerve dangling in ice water....
Living and working in snow sucks...Period...End of story...Only a fool and liar would fail to admit that.
The only ice I ever want to see is in my Margarita...
Airplanes get me to places like, Kitzbheul, Park City and so on. My idea of fun in New York is Watkins Glen.
The Finger Lakes region is great in the spring and fall but it hotter than blazes in summer. I think the hootest race I ever did was the Grand Am 6 hour in June in 2003.
Take care FRiend. I’ll check back in January. :)
That's what happened at the Geysers. Ninety geologists were hired to evaluate the steam potential. Only two wrote that there wasn't enough for what they were proposing. One of those two geologists wrote a book about the whole fiasco.
Governor Jerry Brown's many splendored things: The rise & fall of the California Department of Water Resources' $600 million geothermal energy program for the State Water Project 1976-1991 R.I.P By Eugene H BoudreauBoudreau chronicles the corruption and incompetance that cost Cal taxpayers a fortune. NO ONE WAS EVER HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. Gov. Moonbeam, least of all. Now this idiot is campaigning on reviving California's economy by promoting "Green Industry." God help us. Are Californian's THAT stupid? to fall for this crap, again? Abetted by the media and the Kelptocrats in charge, California sheep are once again being led to slaughter.
True, but they're not coming here in droves. The core businesses, and the jobs they generate, are.
I replied immediately and truthfully that I would quit the Company before I would let them transfer me there at any salary they could reasonably offer.
You should reconsider. Take the job and then file a workmen’s comp claim like everyone else does here in Calif.
Cary interesting. My family is from Wake County. My grandparents used to own a few acres and a home in Zebulon. They sold it before they passed away and now all the area that used to be country is now development. Pharma country instead of tobacco road.
Very true about Santa Fe. The Hollywood type are like locust. Whatever is the “hot” chic” place for the moment, they move to which causes real estate and cost of living to go through the roof. Then when that area isn’t chic anymore they move on leaving a destroyed shell behind.
Whenevr the liberals “claim” an area as an artists colony, destruction follows. Whether it be what has happened to Santa Fe or being overrun by tourists. It brings to mind Talkeetna, Alaska an “artists” colony north of Anchorage that is overrun with tourists heading to or from Denali. The weather and cost of living are probably the only thing preventing it from suffering a fate similar to Santa Fe.
