ParticipantLK, no offense but count me out the group of piggingtons and a few select catholic children, waiting to see your picture. You can email JG’s wife in my place :).
Take a cold shower JG. It works for us “sinners”.

ParticipantSD Transplant I thought your list was great.
I have been a resident here since 1982. Born and raised in Venice but my family spent summers down here since 1969. I would like to add some nostalgia…
You are an old timer if:
– You had a Sunday morning burrito at Tugs.
– You went to Belmont park when it was REALLY Belmont Park.
– You went to the Daily Planet in PB
– You hit the Beachcomber or the Penant on either Sunday or Thursday.
– You know Stephanie Seymour (yes that supermodel) went to Poway High and her mom was a hair dresser in Poway.
– You went to UCSD when it only had 4 colleges.
– You saw the wild horses that used to hang out in Sabre Springs where the pond was. (The pond used to be where the Sabre Springs shopping center is)
– You had to take the Mira Mesa exit off of I15 cuz there was no tech center, nor was there an 805 exit. It was all dirt baby…
– You used to ride motorcycles in the fields that surrounded UTC. The only thing there was Mesa housing.
– You had to go around the coast to get to La Jolla…
– You knew someone who worked at LinkABit…SD Realtor

ParticipantI remember when the the only price club (now costco for any new arrivals) in the world was off the 5 on Morena blvd. When Rubios opened and when it added it’s second location at SDSU that actually had indoor seating. I remember having to drive to Mission Viejo, avery parkway exit to get to the closest in-n-out burger, it was a rule at my fraternity house that when anyone drove south on the 5 through Mission Viejo it was common courtesy to call the house payphone from the in-n-out payphone and take orders, even an hour old they were worth it. I remember eating at Los Ponchos and cursing at myself for being too drunk to drive to Albertos and having to eat at Los Ponchos. And I remember boarding a plane on more than one occasion with carne asada burritos in my carry on luggage because every friend who took a job out of state would take time off work to pick you up at the airport if you brought carne asada. 20 years ago they did not exist outside of San Diego, if you travelled, they became currency.
Why are all my memories food?

ParticipantBefore it was “The Murph”, it was plain old San Diego Stadium.
How about the traffic lights on highway 15 (and I’m not talking about the stretch that was 40th Street)?
Albertos. I know we had to hit the one in Kearny Mesa.
How about Picnic ‘n Chicken? Wasn’t that a San Diego chain?

June 29, 2007 at 4:10 AM #62863ParticipantI remember when the only grocery anywhere near Rancho Santa Fe was in Leucadia! There was absolutely NOTHING in Solana Beach at all. It was always a huge deal when we had to go do “errands” with my mom. Meant a LONG drive, especially if the “back way” was flooded which it was for half the year… and then stopping at the butcher in downtown Leucadia. Anyone remember that butcher? I vividly remember playing on the metal railings and blacktop outside.
