We, too, are leaving LA -- heading for greener pastures in Anaheim.Dave the Ubergeekhttp://dasubergeek.livejournal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171212.post-1165602558039306192006-12-08T10:29:00.000-08:002006-12-08T10:29:00.000-08:00Hey thanks Big Mo. After being here for a year I think the best thing for Canada and the US to do would be to institute some sort of mandatory cultural exchange program. So each year the US sends 20 southern baptists from Georgia to Montreal for the summer, and in return we send my brother to San Francisco.Garethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12660143141246155078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171212.post-1165513239511593122006-12-07T09:40:00.000-08:002006-12-07T09:40:00.000-08:00Hi Gareth,<BR/><BR/> As a native to LA, I found your blog quirky and a fun read. I'm always fascinated by people who come to this city and how they cope. For most, they impose a template of what they think a city should be like. I suppose it's natural. This city challenges those who live here in different ways. Here in LA you could choose to be a beach bum or an entrepreneur of donuts. And the grand thing is if it doesn't work out, well, it isn't called failure here, it's called experience. I'm always struck by how some people dismiss this city and say it isn't a "real city". I beg to differ, this is a vast place with Van Nuys just one piece of a mixed bag with it's own vibrant Music, Literary, Arts, Food and Culture mixed in with wayward mattresses and shopping carts. Thanks for contributing.<BR/><BR/>Good luck,<BR/><BR/>Big MoBig Monoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171212.post-1165468338697061052006-12-06T21:12:00.000-08:002006-12-06T21:12:00.000-08:00Apparently "Jay" is easier to pronounce than "Gareth".
