That guy in the green shirt sure looks happier at his job than the girl with the pink skirt!

As I'm typing this, they just launched the space shuttle; thank God for the geeks of the world.

You know someone who will mow your lawn for $2?

I mow my own lawn because its saves money, I don't want to support illegals, and they'd just thrash my plants anyway.

I have never paid anyone to mow my yard, and seldom pay to have my car washed, I consider it waste of money and actually enjoy doing it. As a matter of fact I rarely pay anyone to do anything around my house, I just like doing it myself, and am perfectly capable of doing most anything needed. When I do pay someone I am usually dissappointed in the work, it's usually just not up to standard.

When I lived in Ohio, I hadn't really heard about Orange County until the TV shows like The OC and Real Housewives of Orange County started popping up. So I have to say the lifestyle and wealth portrayed by the media was the signature of the area to me.

The weather and amusement parks. We would barely even be known if it wasn't for that.

The beaches, weather, natural beauty, lots of stuff to do and it's safe.

But I clicked beach as we are a beach family.
