RE: California Rant!!!!
The only thing wrong with California is all the people there. To crowded. Been there thought the scenery was great. People okay that I met, but way to many. Have them foreskin nozzles showing up in my part of Texas. Takes practice to work. May try that Mccuf thang---just can't stand the color yellow.

RE: California Rant!!!!
Yeah I'd never live in Cali. What I think is amusing about the initial rant was it looks like he was from Detroit. I've been to Detroit a few times for work, and can honestly say that place is a total sh*thole!!! As much as I dislike Cali, it's got to be a big improvement of life in Detroit!!!! That said, think of it like this: you can ALWAYS move back....at least that's what my wife keeps telling me!!

RE: California Rant!!!!
How can you guys afford to live in California. What about your kids, the graduate from Highschool and if the parents didn't save up money for their college, they will end up living in boxes on the sides of the alleys.

I've lived in California well over 40 years, and I will agree with most of rants about this place. It IS the land of fruits and nuts. But, to complain about the rubber boots on the gas pumps? That's just plain pissy. There are a ton of valid major complaints about this state. That one is so minor, it's pathetic. Welcome to California. You fit right in.

i heard Tom Brokaw say last night, "we all know that when the 'big one' hits, California will stay right where it is while the rest of the country slides off into the Atlantic!" i kinda like that.

RE: California Rant!!!!
Dude, it is simple. Fill up your tank, when it shuts off stick a finger under the rubber gasket and continue pumping. Then it will shut off again when close to full.
And those rubber boots keep the fumes out of the air, they are a good thing.
I never spill gas.
