I gotta get out of this state.

Great idea! I escaped from that hellhole of a state in 1998 and now find it very difficult to even go back there to visit the relatives that stayed behind. Before we left they told me we were crazy for leaving "the center of the universe" (typical CA arrogance puke) for the "backwards" South. Funny - none of them are saying that any more, and most of them are now underwater on their mortgages (while our property value has steadily risen), so they are now hopelessly STUCK.

Sorry - I feel your pain...

All I can say is we still have the best weather in the country. But I could live without it. If I had my druthers, I'd move to Idaho/Wyoming/Utah/Nevada, but Mrs. Doomonyou likes Alabama (Too hot/humid/Hurricane for me), we may have to compromise on Texas.
