You know you're in L.A. when...
<UL TYPE=SQUARE>
You know the difference between a "California stop" and a "California roll".
you can pronounce La Jolla and El Cajon.
you know what a marine layer is.
the closer your house is to falling down a hill, or into the ocean, the more you paid for it.
you think nothing of driving five hours to lose your money in Vegas.
your co-worker has 8 body piercings and none are visible.
you know all freeways really start with the word "the", as in The 405, The 105.
you know how to get to Cerritos Auto Square.
you plan trips to see snow.
the hour traffic jam you just sat through wasn't caused by an accident, but by a movie shoot on the freeway overpass.
you think 60 is cold and 50 is freezing!
a forecast of rain sends the TV stations into 24 hours STORM WATCH mode.
you know what a "sig alert" is
you drive at 75 mph regardless of the weather or road conditions
a low speed pursuit will interrupt any TV program.
and finally you know you are in L.A. when the guy in line at Starbuck's wearing the baseball cap and sunglasses who looks like Jack Nicholson, really is Jack Nicholson. [/list]
Los Angeles' full name is "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de los Angeles de Porciuncula; which is why we say L.A.
Keep'em flying
