Someday,curfews will be outlawed. We KNOW they don't work. like whyigotahaveid said,must be nice gettin' OT while the parents of these kids keep gettin' laid off. Way to continue the cycle of poverty and lost hope guys. Here's your gold star.— September 29, 2009 9:37 p.m.
Polanski Children Center -- Celebrity Idiots in the News
Hate to break it to you Josh but Polanski DID serve his sentence. He fled to France because the judge and prosecuter was conspiring to royally f*** him. As someone who shouts from the rooftops about the law like you do,you should also appreciate the fact that the original sentence was upheld. You can't have it both ways. You either respect the laws of our land or you don't.— September 29, 2009 9:30 p.m.
My husband is slowly falling in love with San Diego
Sorry. I meant Reagan.— September 29, 2009 9:15 p.m.

Touche once again refried. You are correct in that sense. I personally think that registered citizens of California shouldn't be allowed to vote. Ahnold,Reagen,Bono and Eastwood are the reasons. Are you listening Tennesseee and Minnesota?— September 29, 2009 9:14 p.m.
This. And That.
I was going to go with the Chargeless on Sunday until I watched the sports report on CBS 8. They said that the Chargeless has NEVER beaten Pittsburgh at home in the regular season. 0-13 in 40 years. That clinched Pittsburgh for me.— September 29, 2009 9:07 p.m.

Bingo,AG. Leave it to a native Californian to bring up politics and look like a complete douchebag. No offense to Fish,I like your column and have no beef with you personally but AG has your balls on that point.— September 29, 2009 8:56 p.m.
My husband is slowly falling in love with San Diego
"The thing is, this article could be written about any town, anywhere, and have pretty much the same reaction and comments. People who have lived in one town all their lives are predictably provincial. Whatever they ID with (town, football team, etc.) is attached to their ego, and they get all offended if there's any suggestion that it's anything less than perfect. Anybody looks at it with new eyes, who hasn't been brainwashed into the cult from birth, and that person is attacked." Not exactly. I'm from Gurnee,Ill(where I was raised the majority of my life). It's about an hour north of Chicago. I consider myself a Chi-town boy. I LOVE Chicago as much as I hate Chicago. I've lived off and on in various towns in Wisconsin. I LOVE Wisconsin as much as I hate Wisconsin. I've been to New York City. I LOVE New York City as much as I hated New York City. I've lived in the Whale's Vagina for 4 years now. As much as I don't"hate"this city,I f***in' hate this city. I have no problem telling people Chicago is a s***hole. Look what happened to that honor student the other day. I think a major turn off for us transplants is the fact that residents of the Whale's Vagina proudly boast that their city isn't the best in America but the finest in all the land. Seems pretty obnoxious to me. As for the food,Lido's in Lemon Grove has the finest pizza I've tasted yet in California. Submarina is a Godsend to a fat tub lard like me who grew up with Chicago's best delis. However,when I first arrived here just over 4 years ago on a hot summer night via Greyhound,I was parched. I was hungry,angry,lonely and tired. And needed a beer. I found this place in Esco called Chicken+. It's still there. There's a Mexican place on the other side of the building. I ordered a gyro,salad and a beer and waited paitently. When my gyro came,I almost s*** a brick. The cook had cut my pita bread into about 5 triangles. O_o Kind of defeated the purpose of the whole sandwich. Needless to say,in 30 minutes,California lost it's allure.— September 29, 2009 8:52 p.m.
Polanski Children Center -- Celebrity Idiots in the News
How is it that the American public wants the head of a producer who commited statutory rape 32 years ago but allows Michael Vick to get his job back because"we're a nation of 2nd chances"?— September 28, 2009 7:44 p.m.
This. And That.
BINGO refried! I said that to my roommate as well. I can't or won't say the Chargeless would've won or loss had Pennington not been injured but it's a pretty fair bet that the game would've stayed close. I'm actually taking the Chargeless to win and the Packers to lose in my football pool next week.— September 28, 2009 7:39 p.m.
Polanski Children Center -- Celebrity Idiots in the News
Why is this even in the news? It seems to me that the U.S. & Swiss authorities worked out some sort of political deal not unlike the Scotland/Lockerbie bomber oil deal. This whole thing has gone from a police/judicial matter to a political hot potato. The guy's 76 years old. He'll meet his judge soon enough. And don't get me started on the corruption of the prosecuter and judge in his case. I'd have probably flown the coop as well.— September 28, 2009 3:56 p.m.
