Dream on, dear boy.  Hawaii, Mexico, Texas, Australia, and much of the
Mediterranean basin have beaches every bit as fine as anything Southern
Califoo can boast.  As for the "best women" that is largely a matter
of taste; I prefer women who will have smooth, white, mossy skin well
into their eighties, rather than wrinkled, sun-parched, sloppy old
crones with skin cancer in their late thirties.  As far as the best
skiing, Mammoth is ruined by all the jerks from Califoo and as far as
weather, well, I prefer living in a temperate climate, thank you.
And how can you tell if you have the best schools if you spend all your
time with all those Southern Califoo women skiing at Mammoth or sunning
your precarcinomic skin on those crowded, filthy excuses for beaches?

As for your arrogant so-cal sneers that there are more of you there than
in northern California, I am reminded of mischance that took place back
in the forties.  It seems that Southern California voters considered
Northern California to be useless, and a bill had been sponsored into
the House which ratified a decision which had been passed through the
legislative bodies of both California and Oregon; to wit, that the
southern three counties of Oregon and the northern five counties of
California were to be combined into the new state of Jefferson.

Unfortunately this fine bill was tabled so that Roosevelt could blather
on about Days that Would Live in Infamy;  One more reason for that
sad day to live in infamy.
