Do you know what happened 159 years ago this Fall... back in 1850?
California became a state.
The people had no electricity.
The state had no money.
Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
There were gunfights in the streets.
So basically, nothing has changed except the women had real boobs and the men didn't hold hands.

  1. That just about sums it up, doesn't it!?!

  2. Is it really that bad? Any Californians out there want to trade with me and come to live in Brooklyn? I promise very little Spanish where I live, but plenty of Jamaican. Our neighborhood hold the dubious distinction of having the first murder of the 2009 year in New York. Just around the corner from where I live.
    My DH loved N. California, but then he can speak Spanish.
