Road Trip

Sailor Steve · 12-09-2011, 11:30 AM

I'm gonna be out of touch for a few days. I'm going to LA for my dad's 84th birthday. It's really an excuse to see my sister for the first time in years, and to finally meet my 12-year-old hocky-wiz niece.

Leaving tonight, back on Monday.

AVGWarhawk · 12-09-2011, 11:32 AM

Enjoy Steve. Glad you can see your dad!

Travel safe, bring back doughnuts.

Tribesman · 12-09-2011, 11:49 AM

Enjoy.

Stay safe and have a good trip!

You've got to be joking. No box of doughnuts can survive an hour in my presence. I'm a renowned pastry hunter/killer.

Good trip to you...

BTW, bring some cold weather clothes; it's been rather cold here in L.A. of late and the forecast is for much of the same, perhaps even a bit of rain eraly next week...

EDIT: It just dawned on me, the LA you are referring to may be Louisiana; if so, disregard prior warning...

We here in Los Angeles tend to regard any pairing of the letters 'L' & 'A' to refer to Los Angeles; it is hard being a provincial...

Have fun!

Of course I'm bringing a good jacket. Whatever the temperature where you are, it's 20 degrees colder here in Salt Lake. We're over 4000 feet higher.

No, you guessed correctly. My sister's in Long Beach, my dad's in Redondo Beach. I would have been more specific, but then everybody would have been saying "Where?" I figured LA would be obvious. Guess I figured wrong. Again.

Have fun on the freeways.

I though the NJ/Ny Metro area traffic was horrid until I rented a car on my last trip out there. They tailgate if you are not speeding , then curse you out as they pass if you refuse to speed.

PM me if you need a repertoire of vile language to use. Us Jersey guys perfected cursing out morons, we know traffic like no other, even LA morons.

All jokes aside, safe trip, and happy times.

I went to LA about 5 years back.
They said bring a coat, it's cold! So I did.
I'm from Ohio and I was working in short sleeves and sweating while the natives were dressed in stuff I wear when it's 28 degrees out!
But I was the 'weird' one.
