Hawaii, Mexico, Texas, Australia, and much of the Mediterranean basin have beaches every bit as fine as anything Southern Califoo can boast. As for the "best women" that is largely a matter of taste; I prefer women who will have smooth, white, mossy skin well into their eighties, rather than wrinkled, sun-parched, sloppy old crones with skin cancer in their late thirties. As far as the best skiing, Mammoth is ruined by all the jerks from Califoo and as far as weather, well, I prefer living in a temperate climate, thank you. And how can you tell if you have the best schools if you spend all your time with all those Southern Califoo women skiing at Mammoth or sunning your precarcinomic skin on those crowded, filthy excuses for beaches? As for your arrogant so-cal sneers that there are more of you there than in northern California, I am reminded of mischance that took place back in the forties. It seems that Southern California voters considered Northern California to be useless, and a bill had been sponsored into the House which ratified a decision which had been passed through the legislative bodies of both California and Oregon; to wit, that the southern three counties of Oregon and the northern five counties of California were to be combined into the new state of Jefferson. Unfortunately this fine bill was tabled so that Roosevelt could blather on about Days that Would Live in Infamy; One more reason for that sad day to live in infamy.
