MT is right. The only thing to worry about in OC is The Real Housewives of Orange County.

Drizzle or downpour? I feel like doing it in a downpour would feel like hundreds of little needles flying into my face.


Gawrsh, yah-huh!

Couldn't imagine riding Big Thunder Mountain Railroad or even Test Track at Epcot in that kind of cold...
It seems to be keeping people away. The majority of guests seem to be here for the marathon. I heard on the news whole on break earlier that the runners in yesterday's Donald Half-Marathon ran through snow flurries.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

I dunno. This season has a few of the Housewives cutting back, down sizing, getting evicted, etc. Next up: divorce sales.

I tell ya it's like that old soap opera, As The Stomach Turns.

Sorry, but I have to agree with Darph on this one:

The Santa Ana is a wind; :willie:

Santana is a most excellent guitarist! :santana:

Trust me, I grew up with both.

LOL Was a given you'd post on this one Zazu. ;) I also grew up in O C. Learned my Spanish from the best Spanish teachers possible - my Mom & private teachers. We covered this is another thread. No use going over Santana Winds again. As far as guitarist Santana, you have excellent taste in music Zazu. :cool: Go ahead & agree with darph. No one in his home does. :D:

A few months ago my wife, a friend and I were having dinner in Lahaina. We were sitting in a corner booth in the rear of the restaurant.

Two guys were seated in the booth next to us. I glanced over and discovered one was Carlos Santana. My wife is a classical guitarist so I thought I'd point him out to her. She freaked out. :eek:

As we were walking out she stopped at his booth and hit on him. ;)

It wasn't Melrose, it was Hollywood and I can't help it if it seems normal to me so I didn't know it would freak him out so badly. :)
