Talking I'm Here

Wow, is LA BIG? At the risk of sounding a bit country

I've just hijacked a computer at the Apple shop in Santa Monica, and for the first time ever, bought Excellence in the same month it was published!

Cheers

Welcome John! The sprawl of LA is quite daunting, isn't it? Are you planning to attend the German Auto Fest this weekend in Ventura?

Cool

Hey John,

We have mountains and deserts just like you do, except that they are like LA. If you make it this far, I'll show you the Ozarks. They are just fine!

Welcome and have fun.

Best,

You need to hijack someone's 911 and head to the canyons, maybe hotwire BB2 when Jack's not looking....

Try to get out of LA -- this is a really cool continant once you get away form the primate-damaged areas.

Welcome John!

If you are interested, come up to the San Francisco area! If you do plan to drive north, I encourage you to take scenic route 1, which will take you along the ocean... the cliffs... Hurst castle.. and many other beautiful landmarks.

Have a nice time in L.A., and wherever else you plan to explore,
Matt

Guess whats on TV this Sunday on Channel 9 (Australia), Crocodile Dundee in LA.

Are you going to try and smuggle a set of SSI's home in your luggage?

Glad you made it!
How will we recognize you ?? Did you bring a part of your blue car along?? Or maybe wear a 'fishcop blue' t-shirt ??

See you in Ventura !!

Please post a link to that Cowbell episode of SNL you're using for your avatar. I thought I was going to pee my pants when I saw that for the first time...
