Not really. Mooters write pretty good compared to other onliners.
Of course, I'm the best!

Mooters write pretty well, not pretty good.

That niece of bin laden is quite a cutie! A looker, I mean she's very sultry-pretty. She's quite pretty. Let me look at that again... *scrolls back to last page*

I just got back from doing endless shark-circling at the parking lot, tryna get a parking place just at the grocery store to get tomatoes and stuff - traffic's amazing now out there. Two days till Christmas. Tomorrow's Christmas eve! THEN, there was also this enormous ugly car accident right down the street, and the weather's all erratic, too, in a very cool and interesting way. Thick fog everywhere, all on the ocean, too, with an afternoon sun glaring through the fog in this weird barrow-downs kind of way. Plus, the waves are still all funky and big, and the tide line has come all the way up ther beach! I've never seen it come up so close. And some tugboat was out there just now tugging in a sailboat that got stuck right almost at the shoreline! Lot happenin' today...

Why does he want to go out in that blood-infused, shark-infested ocean of crazy pre-Christmas shoppers? Insanity. But you're not in the Valley right now, or are you? Yeah, if you're in the Valley right now, well GOOD LUCK tryna navigate that insanity!

No, I'm just in the valley, the OTHER valley, so no.

The other valley! Lol! Is that like "the other white meat?" Just playin'. I really love the San Fernando Valley; I don't care much for the other valleys. They're too depressing & - depressing. What I remember of the Central Valley and Taft/Bakersfield/Twenty-Nine Palms kind of areas. Depressing and spooky, I don't know how else to describe it right now. Is it nicer where you're at?

Depressing because of all the land that is being gobbled up for housing, but other than that, it's great, at least in the North Western part. The further South East, it begins to look like the worst areas of Mexico if not worse.

No, he's more in central/south-east California, where it's kind of desert-and oil fields-and-some agricultural & beef farms stuff like that, right trolls' bane?

BUT, this is a very pretty picture of a golf course in trolls' bane's area



and another one...


There's not much but golf course pix and some real estate developers pix which are there to sell new track housing, pretty much.

Some beautiful pics. Yeah, I'm about ten miles away. Those pictures were taken in La Quinta. Those mountains in the background are the Santa Rosas. In the top picture, you can see some houses near the mountain's feet. Contrary to what the pic looks like, there are a LOT of houses, including that of my grandma. I beleive, though I may be wrong, that that is what is known as the Cove or La Quinta Cove, where the majority of LQ houses are. I know that golf course. I beleive it's right off Calle Tampico or Eisenhower Drive.
I'm going to try and find a pic of Mt. Eisenhower, the most famous mountain in that part of the Santa Rosa range. It stands out for it's more or less rounded appearence.

Well, now that I've searched, ALL mount Eisenhowers appear to have a rounded appearence and the one I want to find can't be found. Ugh, and it's right out my window too.
