So, out of all of you that live up there, who would like to meet for lunch or something some day? I'd like to meet yous guys. :) I know HotChic is up there too and we wanted to meet before.

Oh, I know I'll miss this area. I've lived here for about 16 years. I'm like 1.5 miles from the beach.

Where do you live right now and where in Sacto are you moving to?

Nature is certainly something northern california has southern california beat on

I'm from SoCal and yosemite is about the same distance from Sacto than LA. As far as nature goes, we have the Santa Monica Mountains and the Angeles forest and nothing beats the best kind of nature than the beautiful ocean.

hmmm... ocean with beautiful women or farmland with lots of trees and cows...

you decide

excuse me but yosemite is not the same distance from sacto as from LA. Not even close. I can get their in like an hour from my house. It takes me 6 hours to drive to LA. And sure, you have the beach, but there are also beaches in nor cal. Remember, the ocean does border the entire coastline of california. Although it is pretty much too cold to go swimming in nor cal, I would have to say the views are much better. I mean there are nice rock cliffs with gorgeous views over the oceans. And you are not going to tell me that there are better forests in so cal than in nor cal. I mean so cal is a frikkin dessert (or desert?)...it's just that hollywood pays to make it look all fake and stuff

Since I don't know where you live, I said from Sacramento. and it only takes me a little over four hours to get to Yosemite. Los Angeles might be considered a desert, but if it is, it's quite an oasis. And since we have been talking about Sacramento, then you can't say much about the beaches since there are none. If you referring to Mendocino, San Francisco, or Monterey, then I agree that there are some really nice views, but it would be nice to go into the water too. You want forests, we have them, but if you're referring to the redwoods up there, then they're not in Sacramento.

If you think this a NoCal vs SoCal arguement, it's not. My beef is with the Sacramento area. I've lived there and I hated it. I lived in the Bay Area and I loved it. So it's not Northern Cali that I have a problem with.

Oh ya, I didn't know Hollywood paid to make everything around me look "fake". I guess everything's a facade around here.

You know what they say about Hollywood...What do you get if you remove the tinsel? More tinsel. Anyhoo, I know that this isn't a debate about nor cal vs so cal, I'm just saying that there are nice things to do up here. So what exactly is there to do in LA that you can't do in Sactown? If anything, there is a little more nightlife but you can do the same things in cities all across America. Just because it doesn't have as many high-rises doesn't mean it's boring. And yes, there are redwoods right around Sacramento. What did you do when you lived here? Did you even get out?

I'm not too sure about your Hollywood comment, but I'll leave that alone since it appears that you probably haven't even been down here and don't know what you are talking about.

Yes, I did go out and if you have been to any of the clubs in LA or San Francisco, they are in a totally different league than Sacramento. So nightlife doesn't compare. The majority of the people in Sacto tend to have less culture than the people of LA or the city. It's not about the high rises, it's about atmosphere and Sacto doesn't cut it.

Plus, if there's any reason to not like Sacto, having the Kings over there should be reason enough... (anybody feel a Kings-Laker debate coming on...)

I'd be willing to meet for lunch sometime, as long as you promise you're not a psycho stalker. ;)

When are you moving?

LOL I'm not a psycho stalker! Okay, well...MAYBE not a psycho stalker. :p I've met several people from here too. They can vouch for me. ;) LOL I'm not quite sure when I'll be moving. I'll have to let y'all know when I know.

Well i've been to Hollywood plenty of times. Not too exciting. Mainly the only reason I go to LA is either for Disneyland or when I pass through on my way to San Diego. But yes, I already said LA has more nightlife, but that doesn't mean Sacto doesn't have any. And how does Sacto have less culture? I just really don't understand that when people say that. Please enlighten me.
And don't even get me started on the kings. That's a totally different thread. But let me add these two cents...Bibby for 7 years and Keon Clark next year....better watch out

I travel between the Bay Area and Folsom (20 miles east of Sac) for business. I have an apartment in Folsom, and after having lived in San Francisco my whole life, the pace of life in the Sac area is pretty monotonous for me.

But to each his own... some people love it in Folsom and can't imagine living in the Bay Area or *gasp* LA where the Lakers are! :)

BTW, Stojakapimp... is that sign of yours Korean?

Why yes it is korean...you're the first person to ask me that. I'm actually no korean but it's a phrase my good friend from school taught me. Do you know what it means?
And I will agree with you on how the Bay area is more fast paced than Sacto. Not necessarily a bad thing, but it is true

haha...yes, I do have strange friends. Maybe Kochu Isa would be better? I might not be spelling that wrong. Anyways, I just drove right by your place two days ago when I went to the movie theater there in Folsom. Anyways, I like in a small town called Volcano which is by Jackson, so from your place I just take latrobe road to 16 to 49...if you have any idea what i'm talking about

First of all, coming down to Hollywood and going to Disneyland just proves you know nothing about LA. I never consider Hollywood when I want to go out. I'd much rather go to Century City, Santa Monica, Pasadena, Manhatten Beach, Malibu,... the list goes on. Also, I don't consider line dancing, going to the rodeo, or going to the State Fair as nightlife, so enough of "Sacto has a nightlife".

If you've already heard that Sacto doesn't have any culture from others, then you should start to believe it. Enlighten you... well, it's called theater, concerts (both classical and pop culture), and museums. Yes, sacramento has these but people there don't like to go. Why? Ask yourself. But that's why people say that there is no culture there.

Yes, cause that's what I do here in sac, is go line dancing and to the rodeo. You're just simply stating the stereotypical description that every ignorant person uses. And that's a good reason for me to believe that sacto has no culture...because i've heard it before. Strong evidence. I'll just add that i've seen many a good concert up here in Blackramento.

I'm in Davis. As soon as I graduate (1 Year) I am getting the hell out of here and returning to my homeland, which is Fremont (Bay Area).

But wherever you live, it's what you make of it.

Although it is pretty much too cold to go swimming in nor cal, I would have to say the views are much better. I mean there are nice rock cliffs with gorgeous views over the oceans. And you are not going to tell me that there are better forests in so cal than in nor cal. I mean so cal is a frikkin dessert (or desert?)...it's just that hollywood pays to make it look all fake and stuff

Since I don't know where you live, I said from Sacramento. and it only takes me a little over four hours to get to Yosemite. Los Angeles might be considered a desert, but if it is, it's quite an oasis. And since we have been talking about Sacramento, then you can't say much about the beaches since there are none. If you referring to Mendocino, San Francisco, or Monterey, then I agree that there are some really nice views, but it would be nice to go into the water too. You want forests, we have them, but if you're referring to the redwoods up there, then they're not in Sacramento.

If you think this a NoCal vs SoCal arguement, it's not. My beef is with the Sacramento area. I've lived there and I hated it. I lived in the Bay Area and I loved it. So it's not Northern Cali that I have a problem with.

Oh ya, I didn't know Hollywood paid to make everything around me look "fake". I guess everything's a facade around here.

You know what they say about Hollywood...What do you get if you remove the tinsel? More tinsel. Anyhoo, I know that this isn't a debate about nor cal vs so cal, I'm just saying that there are nice things to do up here. So what exactly is there to do in LA that you can't do in Sactown? If anything, there is a little more nightlife but you can do the same things in cities all across America. Just because it doesn't have as many high-rises doesn't mean it's boring. And yes, there are redwoods right around Sacramento. What did you do when you lived here? Did you even get out?

I'm not too sure about your Hollywood comment, but I'll leave that alone since it appears that you probably haven't even been down here and don't know what you are talking about.

Yes, I did go out and if you have been to any of the clubs in LA or San Francisco, they are in a totally different league than Sacramento. So nightlife doesn't compare. The majority of the people in Sacto tend to have less culture than the people of LA or the city. It's not about the high rises, it's about atmosphere and Sacto doesn't cut it.

Plus, if there's any reason to not like Sacto, having the Kings over there should be reason enough... (anybody feel a Kings-Laker debate coming on...)

Well i've been to Hollywood plenty of times. Not too exciting. Mainly the only reason I go to LA is either for Disneyland or when I pass through on my way to San Diego. But yes, I already said LA has more nightlife, but that doesn't mean Sacto doesn't have any. And how does Sacto have less culture? I just really don't understand that when people say that. Please enlighten me.
And don't even get me started on the kings. That's a totally different thread. But let me add these two cents...Bibby for 7 years and Keon Clark next year....better watch out

First of all, coming down to Hollywood and going to Disneyland just proves you know nothing about LA. I never consider Hollywood when I want to go out. I'd much rather go to Century City, Santa Monica, Pasadena, Manhatten Beach, Malibu,... the list goes on. Also, I don't consider line dancing, going to the rodeo, or going to the State Fair as nightlife, so enough of "Sacto has a nightlife".

If you've already heard that Sacto doesn't have any culture from others, then you should start to believe it. Enlighten you... well, it's called theater, concerts (both classical and pop culture), and museums. Yes, sacramento has these but people there don't like to go. Why? Ask yourself. But that's why people say that there is no culture there.

Yes, cause that's what I do here in sac, is go line dancing and to the rodeo. You're just simply stating the stereotypical description that every ignorant person uses. And that's a good reason for me to believe that sacto has no culture...because i've heard it before. Strong evidence. I'll just add that i've seen many a good concert up here in Blackramento.

Well, if you're trying to make a case for Sacramento, then I hate to tell you but you've failed. All you've said is that "yes the nightlife is better in LA" "Yes the beaches are better" "I don't know culture so please explain" And you usually stereotypes stem from a source. You might be the exception to the rule, but that doesn't mean it isn't true.

Plus, did I ever mention the women down here??? By the way, did you put your cowbell you used at the playoff games back on the women up there?

I'm from SoCal and yosemite is about the same distance from Sacto than LA. As far as nature goes, we have the Santa Monica Mountains and the Angeles forest and nothing beats the best kind of nature than the beautiful ocean.

hmmm... ocean with beautiful women or farmland with lots of trees and cows...

you decide

Hmmm...i don't reckon I said anything of the sort. Here's main overview: LA has more nightlife...Sacto has more nature. Whatever floats your boat is good enough. And when did I ask to explain culture? Um...so there's a lot of mexicans and asians in LA? hmm...i'm a little confused. And actually I didn't have a cowbell

And what's up with the women comment? So you got these fake women with see through shoes....they're called hookers. I went to a night club in LA once and afterwards I went to a thai place....it was the first time I saw a guy crossdressed as a girl....maybe that's what you call culture

It was Phil Jackson's ignorant comment that caused the cow bells in the first place.
Sac. is not a cow town. Go to some of the towns around and yes, you might see some cows.
It was all started by a Southern Californian talking out of his @ss.
Now both you two are doing the same.
So Stojaka likes Nor. Cal because he is from here, and Pixel likes So. Cal.
Why does this have to turn into a pissing contest?

Those were you're words. Were they not? And having mexicans, asians (oh ya, and blacks, Indians, Middle Eastern, European, whites) is not why I said we have culture. Guess you didn't read. That's ok, you can go back and catch up later tonight.

And sorry, I "reckoned" you'd have a cowbell, but mabye you "betta be a fixin" to get one for next year's playoffs.
