I've been doing a little much-needed house cleaning today, and in going through my magazines, deciding what to keep and what to throw away, I found the following letter in the February, 2012 issue of Vanity Fair:
LETTERS--
Our Town
December Vanity Fair's article "The Code of the Winklevii," by Dana Vachon, includes an unwarranted attack on a city that recently celebrated 100 years of growing into one of the largest and safest in San Diego County. The author's reference to Chula Vista as a "California border town" and a "sputtering neon error of beauty academies and pawn shops" is false, and his characterization of the nation's 77th-largest city is both inappropriate and offensive.
Cheryl Cox Mayor Chula Vista, California
I live in Escondido and I'll be the first to admit that I don't know much about Chula Vista other than it is the place where Jessica Sanchez, American Idol's latest second-runner up is from. But from the impression I've gotten, mostly from San Diego's Most Wanted, the late-night version of John Wash's show, Chula Vista is as gang-ridden as Esco. According to one story I watched a couple of years ago, members of a Mexcian drug cartel were kiddnapping wealthy Mexcians who lived in Chula Vista and holding them for ransom.
I don't know for sure, I'm just saying...
