I do so love earthquakes. Northridge was really the only destructive one in the past few decades and I remember that being a blast. Except for, you know, the death and destruction part. It's kind of like being on a rollercoaster ride, except without the annoying feeling of falling. And snow for me is like a pretty fantasy that I know I can drive a couple hours to, but really only happens to other people.
Heh. Well, considering about 40% of Democrats polled want Davis gone, I don't think you need to be a billionaire Republican to understand it. The recall, as of right now, looks like it's gonna cost somewhere in the vicinity of 70 million dollars. Davis wastes that in, like, a day. You don't have to live here to understand what a crook the man is, but I think you do have to live here to understand how fed up Californians are with him and his wicked ways. We've seen spending go through the roof, only outdistanced by our taxes, businesses packing up every day, every single public service deteriorating to the point of uselessness, etc., etc., all so the prison guard's union could get a 38% pay increase. Of course, that was only so they would contribute heavily to Davis' campaign. And then to find out he lied about CA's financial problems before the election and then 'corrected' himself afterwards? You'd be amazed how angry people here are.

And for a damn good reason, too.
