norcal all the way.

socal's great to visist once awhile but man, I'd rather live in canada than LA.

plus, I'd be too far from the kings, and too close to the lakers.

just because thats all i listed doesn't make it all to it. my list was not all encompassing, so?

Well from what you said it looked like you were just basing your opinion on a couple sports teams (and you didn't include basketball).

Bah! Even the surfing is more hardcore. You people dont have to worry about sharks, crazy rip tides, GIANT FVCKING WAVES IN THE WINTER! Give me a break, Norcal takes Socal to school.

Better women.
Surfing year round with a springsuit. (ok, Ya'll have Mavericks, I'll give ya that)
Somewhat cheaper property.
Better women.
Less fallout from the Dot-Bombs.
Better women.
Slightly less crowded freeways.
Better women.

a lot of people say the attitudes in Socal sucks, like people think to higgly of themselves. we think that way because we are just plain better to nor cal

and central california? god, it's like matrox and norcal/socal are nvidia/ATI. i thought i should throw in an analogy. :)

Let's see what the opinion is in January when the rest of the country is in negative temps, NorCal is freezing, windy, AND raining non-stop, and it's a Balmy 75 degrees in LA/San Diego. I love going to the beach in the winter.

I was born in SoCal and before the flood of immigrants fron S.E. Asia and Mexico it was a better place to live than NorCal.. at least for us who were Californian Natives (Which includes races of all kinds) Of course if you are an immigrant then SoCal and parts of the Bay Area (like Milpitas) is great because they have strong S.E. Asian Communities. In fact in Cerritos and Milpitas you can go tpo a Nieghborhood and it will seem like you are in S>E Asian Country.
