Yes I am, thanks for asking.
In fact my attention was brought to post 47 by Lowell1775, below.
#47: Hate to say it CA Freepers, but I am praying for the big one.
And instead of being like you crying about a thread being posted, in #248 I told him to pray harder for death and destruction of other Americans. I suggested he go to church and pray more and told him maybe God will answer his prayers. Ya got to laugh at these sick comments.
Of course like all the others who've wished harm, death and destruction without a hint of sarcasm, will later claim they were just kidding when others take notice...lol
Ya see people have been very jealous and expressed hatred CA for as long as I can remember.
In fact we have relatives all over, including TX and Ohio. Even during the Reagan years many of them displayed their dislike and or hatred for CA. It's nothing new.
We're used to it. When they are walking through 3 feet of wind blown brown snow, ice, living through brutal heat and humidity, they see people here BBQing in January wearing shorts, flowers blooming in December, with nearly perfect year round Mediterranean style weather on the CA coastal plains. The weather alone is worth a fortune to us.
Ya see we fully understand CA is currently run by socialist, like much most of the U.S. now.
But many of us also understand CA, even currently run by socials, is massive economic machine, much larger than *any* other state and is clearly the crown jewel of the U.S., with topography of every imaginable description and lots to do and see.
So when people pray for death and destruction of other Americans here, we understand all the motives which come into play. It's been going on forever.
BTW, I hate to disappoint some people, but I live in So. CA and haven't felt any of this activity down near the Mexican border. In fact I've lived here my entire life, went through about half a dozen quakes and thankfully never had any damage whatsoever.
One more thing, I've never *ever* seen someone from California wish or pray for massive floods, earthquakes, tornadoes or hurricanes etc, on those living in other states.
I think that about sums it up.
Cheers!
BUMP!
I don't hate California and I don't hate any other state. The people of the NW think that they live in the center of the universe, the rest of us know that they don't and we wouldn't trade places with them for anything. But we don't hate them.
BTW we are BBQing in shorts in Jan and we have flowers blooming in Dec. Texas summers are not the best for me but I know folks who love them.
I truly do not hate California and want to apologize for those rude folks who do. My husband has relatives in CA and they are hippies who have grown older but haven't gotten any smarter. They are flaming liberals and I am sooooo glad they live in your state not ours.
