I live in SoCal, in the little town of Manhattan Beach, which lies on the Santa Monica Bay. We are just south of LAX. It is beautiful here!

10. Your in-laws are south of me... |
|
That airport is probably the John Wayne Airport. And believe it or not, there are progressive types down there. More than there used to be...!

15. Yes and they are progressives themselves |
|
even though the Orange County Register is a notorious conservative rag...They subscribe to the LA Times!

19. Good for them! The LA Times is turning into a pretty good paper, |
|
IMHO. They've won some Pulitzers for hard reporting. They did a series on Wal*Mart that got my blood boiling...BTW.
Thank you for helping put me OVER THE TOP!

I'm not sure "wonderful" is the correct word! However, you are a lovely and charming young lady, and I do enjoy talking with you! How's that? I am sooo glad you're here for me! And you know I'm here for you, too, don't you?

Are you saying my mom lied to me? :cry:
I think you're my favourite person from California, and that includes a whole whack of crazy relatives.

I'm sure you're a wonderful daughter! I thank you from the bottom of my liberal heart for the lovely compliment! Do you ever visit in SoCal? Any of your crazy relatives down here? Come visit...We'd have a blast...

17. They're mostly in and around San Francisco |
|
I think the fog has effected their brains. Some of them are really quite looney.
I have spent lots of good times in California though.

21. Ahhh, San Francisco, the beautiful city by the Golden Gate! |
|
It's one of my favorite cities...I grew up (mostly) in San Jose, and a trip to SF was a BIG TREAT! I always said I wanted to live there, after the BIG ONE! But since my husband and I have built our own home here in SoCal, we won't be doing that...Sorry your relatives are so looney...

Yes, Peggy is my real name. However, it is NOT my legal name! That is Margaret...Nicknames suck, IMHO. But everybody calls me Peggy, and I like it!

27. Dunno, probably foreign policy or something. |
|
It was just called "A Conversation with Joe Lieberman," so I think it will be open to a lot of questions, which will be cool. What are your questions for Joe?

|
When is dear Joe going to make it official, and become a card-carrying Republican?

Yes! I actually was waiting for him to come out at the DNC 2004 and I kept prompting him by saying, "Ah sorry, friends, but I'm a Republican."

Yeah, it was fast, wasn't it? Less than a week! I guess I'm a serious poster...Either that, or a frivolous one...
Believe me, dear boy, you WERE in the 700 club, since you have to pass 700 to get to 1000plus...! I'm looking forward to those exalted heights, BTW.

Oh well, 100 posts in one night, that I can believe! If you have a lot of friends and a hot topic, that would certainly be possible. Talk about missed communication!

37. Hey there, my German friend! |
|
I wondered if you'd be coming by for a chat tonight! er, I mean morning! I keep forgetting you're 8 hours ahead of us! You are so right, I had a lot of help tonight...I felt a little silly, asking for help when all I needed was 5 more posts. But this is a very fun way to accomplish what I wanted to do. I guess I must not be on too many people's ignore lists!
It's lovely to be in the 800's! A very good feeling, indeed...How was your long weekend? You went to see your Aunt, didn't you? How was that? Stay in touch! I love hearing from you!
