I'm more confused as to why I'm using the prospect of seeing my girlfriend in a bikini as a reason to go to WMC

And we're not "talking about it", we're going. Hotel booked, tickets purchased

haha your so taking it wrong...but wmc most girls are just in their swim suit and thats about it..so assuming bunny is going to be like all the other girls....

ahh well see i hadnt discussed it with ya. geez! haha i wouldnt have even considered it if a friend didnt offer me to stay in the villa they will be in. which i wouldnt really use much anyways so yeah..but i really need to get this damn job..cause i need to fix my car.

earthquakes are the most illogical of all things to fear imo. so the ground shakes violently for about a minute every 100+ years on average, big fucking deal. understand the integrity of your environment as the tremors are occurring and you'll have a 99.999% survival rate. are you on made land @ sea level? if so head for higher ground. the way most things are built today in the bay area you will manage to avoid getting killed if you're the 1/1,000,000 people who both feel it and are directly in the epicenter. statistically more people worldwide die of bee stings than earthquakes--and the transform fault that runs down most of california is the least-deadly type of plate edge. if you want to worry about something more realistic, i'd be more afraid of getting t-boned on the way home from the club.

There haven't been earthquakes since Josh4 moved out there to fill in the cracks, lololololol...get it??

I told him I was more afraid of my satellite getting shut off before Thursday than I am of an earthquake. By the way, my satellite got shut off today

if by nothern california you mean central valley (sac) and southern california, then yes. the highest temp ever recorded in sf was 103. average summertime highs are in the low 70s.

There is a fault line that goes right underneath the Mississippi, and geologists are predicting a MASSIVE earthquake will strike the Midwest in the next 5 or 10 years. So I guess it dont matter where you live, the Earth is gonna shake anyways.

anyone who says they can predict when an earthquake is going to happen is full of shit

not something way too extreme just mild enough to feel on your skin and go surfing or something and beaches nearby

haha you know that us nor cal peeps consider the bay area a totally separate area from "norcal"

but yes i agree since that does clarify it for the rest of the folks that arent native norcal peeps.

i can predict them! my prediction when it will happen is....someday after today! lol

its always been that way. when anyone in northern california is talking about it they refer to the bay area in different context. its been that way for as long as i remember. including people i knew that lived in the bay area.

A buddy of mine just south of San Jose put it this way: "the Bay Area is the divider between norcal and socal"

Bummer man.

Ok, so the general consensus from you Cali folks seems to be that quakes aren't really a big deal.

Never experienced one, so I was kinda curious what they were like. Cheers

lived in cali my whole life. never personally felt one. although i have never been THAT close to an earthquake when they actually happened. the closest i have ever been was 100 miles..and i didnt feel it personally.

well, when they DO happen, it's usually a single jolt.
Afterwards, the local news channels do about 2-3 hours coverage of what caused it (democrats blame the republicans, that kind of thing), there is also a counter on the bottom of the screen counting the number of reported deaths. There is the video of the UCSD earthquake simulator. Some time later in the day, firefighters are accompanied by insurance agencies knocking on every door to make sure everyone is not hurt and asking whether they would like to buy earthquake insurance (as required by law). Then we all converge at City Hall to discuss measures on how to launch offensives on the faults.

California State Long Beach has a really good business program. That's where I graduated from, and a friend of mine just got his masters from there Also check out USC (for general business, not sure how the IT program is), I believe Loyola Marimount has a really good business program too.

pretty much every person i know up here considers anything north of big sur to yosemite northern california. i wouldn't even pay attention to anyone who says the bay area isn't norcal. if it's not northern california, then what the fuck is it?????

ehh im over arguing about it. i never once said it wasnt part of norcal. just said that contextually i dont know anyone (well now i do) that talks about the bay area when they refer to norcal unless they are southern cali people. so whatever. apparently its another regional difference that i was unaware of.

i'm not arguing, i'm just curious what a person who doesn't consider san francisco a part of northern california thinks it's a part of lol, i mean seriously... who are these people
