Flags On Graves Always Make Me Cry
I love it, too! I probably shouldn't mention (but duty commands me) that folks from Massachusetts are generally referred to as "M*ssholes". Kinda reminds me of the "Invasion of the Zonies" every summer in SD. Often seen bumper sticker in the PB/MB/OB areas from the 60's / 70's: "Tourist, Go Home - But Leave Your Daughters!".

nan, I've actually had to ask some folks to repeat words they had just spoken in the hopes of being able to understand them. Some unique dialects on display up heah. Also, some interesting terminology. If you're having an extremely busy day, you're "right out straight." And many people, when putting you on hold, use the phrase, "Hold right on." Hamburger loses the last syllable, too, as in "Wanna go get a hamburg?". It's entertaining, actually.— June 2, 2010 10:55 a.m.

Re #11: I love them, too, MsG, and my daughter even more so. I dropped her off at a friend's house yesterday for our town's Memorial Day Parade, and as I was turning around I noticed a small, very old cemetery virtually in their neighbor's back yard. I mentioned it to my daughter,and she said "Oh, that's a Revolutionary and Civil War cemetery. The oldest marker I've seen in there is from the 1790's." Here's a shot from the one that's just down the street from us. http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/static.pa…— June 1, 2010 5:49 a.m.

Re #8 - The story read: 1:12 PM PDT, May 28, 2010 "MURRIETA, Calif. -- Authorities say a mother who already lost custody of two children in 2008 will lose custody of her 6-month-old boy whose testicles were chewed off by two large dogs in Riverside County. Murrieta police say the 22-year-old mother Carrie McKinney had left the baby in a carrier on the floor in her friend's apartment last Saturday. Sgt. Bob Landwehr says the woman left the room and soon after, a pit bull and pit bull mix attacked the baby, tearing off the infant's diaper and biting his scrotum. The mother and friend, Doug Ritchey, heard screaming and rescued the baby, who is hospitalized in unknown condition, police said. Child Protective Services workers took the baby from the mother, Murrieta police Sgt. James Ganley said. San Diego County child protective services has obtained a court order to take the infant away from McKinney, of Point Loma, Ganley said. MCKinney had lost custody of two other children in 2008, the Press-Enterprise is reporting. It was not immediately clear why she lost custody of her other children. Riverside County CPS will conduct an investigation, Ganley said. No arrests have been made in the case. The dogs are being euthanized."— May 30, 2010 5:52 a.m.

Well, definable or not, it certainly makes for entertaining reading. Put it this way: even though I'm typing this from more than 3000 miles away, I feel closer to Tijuana (and my own numerous and some humorous memories) than ever before. Thank you.— May 28, 2010 9:16 a.m.
