Participant[quote=nostradamus]For active people it just doesn’t get any better than SD. If you like sports and staying in shape, this is the place to be.
I would consider moving, but then I see the fat people talking about life in the South or Midwest…
I almost got in a fight this weekend when someone tried to steal my volleyball and the dude called me a “20-year-old-jerk”. It wasn’t a very good insult considering I’m 37 but I do lots of sports in SD and he was clearly a tourist from elsewhere (paunchy, pasty, and white).
Maybe it’s good that we don’t have the best restaurants in the world, yet another reason to keep us in shape.
Sorry for all the geographic fatness generalizations, feel free to thrash me for it.[/quote]
You can be active in the midwest and south, I think the fatness is more about culture regarding eating and food choice. Yes, you have the beautiful weather and beaches for year round activity in San Diego, but I don’t think you have the worshipping of high fat foods like you have in other regions. Also, I think there are cultural attitudes about physical appearance – like being able to look good in a bikini on the beach.Participant[quote=nostradamus]For active people it just doesn’t get any better than SD.

I’ve been hanging out in Austin this summer and though Austin is a cool city, it just doesn’t compare to the lifestyle that can be found on the west coast. I also think that some people are mistaken about the cost of homes in Texas. Yes they are cheap, but not that cheap in the nicer areas. In fact, in Austin the more hip urban areas, homes go for quite a bit – like $575K for an 1200 sq. foot house. That’s a lot in my book, especially if there is no ocean nearby and it’s a 100 degrees outside. Granted you can get a stone McMansion in Round Rock for 350K (with 10,000 per year taxes), but personally I have no interest in that lifestyle.
Pt Loma is a special place, with old money, but with patience should come down some.

ParticipantI agree that off topics are very interesting and enjoyable, but yours in particular are so extreme!
And was your point actually about our leaders I.Q. or how the media tends to be biased at times? Because it wasn’t clear to me.
I personally like balance between the ideaology of both parties. I vote based on the person, not the party.What was wrong with my video, it was totally relevant to your post! You’re a big poo-poo head with no sense of humor!
