I live in California! Ask me anything!

[Taverner]

Yes most of us hate Ahhhnold still...and the highways are still clogged, especially today

[GOPisEvil]

1. What's your favorite scenic place to visit (in state)?

I'm a big fan of the Muir Woods myself.

[Taverner]

3. Valley of the Giants in Humboldt County

Think Muir Woods on steroids :)

[GOPisEvil]

5. Ahhh...I've never made it there.

I've spent more time in SoCal.

[Taverner]

8. Check it out - its way worth it

And keep in mind in Humboldt and Mendocino Counties Marijuana is fully legal

[Gormy Cuss]

14. Here I would have thought you'd say

the Sunol Grade or I-580.
:hide:

on edit: I agree about Valley of the Giants and the whole range of redwood parks in Humboldt.

[Taverner]

16. Sunol Grade has gotten better since they expanded it

Still, I take Niles Canyon when I can.

I-580 is still bad however....

Oh and a secret tip - if you are stuck in Southeast bay and want a beautiful drive, take Niles Canyon. It's worth it, and a lot of silent movies were filmed there in the 20's.

2. Do you think that your state should be halved?

Would it be beneficial at all?

:hi:

[Taverner]

9. Be nice to get rid of the OC (sorry Bertha)

But then we'd lose San Diego so....no

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. are you happy and bouncy?

as californians are supposed to be?

[Taverner]

10. Depends on whether I've had my latte yet

:bounce:

[kwassa]

6. Have any nice mudslides lately?

[Taverner]

11. Funny my dad lives in Mudslide country

He and his home were OK, but some of his neighbors had to evacuate

[LeftyMom]

7. Do you surf?

Do you know any famous people?

:silly:

[Taverner]

12. The web, yes :)

Hmmmmm my cousin was a sax player for Al Stewart and Peter White - does that count?

[Ellen Forradalom]

13. So what's the scoop on Ventura County?

I'm talking to an employer out there in 45 minutes.

[Taverner]

15. Repug-lite

Lots of new McMansions...not as repug as Orange County, but it's no Berkeley either...

And no alligator lizards in the air either...

[pdx_prog]

17. Have you ever eaten a SMOG?

Best I can figure it must be a small hog....

[Taverner]

18. No but I've met GOB

[Initech]

19. Where in California?

[Taverner]
