27) You've seen the L.A. River (and Santa Ana River) almost overflowing. No, it ain't no "joke" river. For the older folks, you remember Mother's Pride and got redemption for the jugs.

This list applies more if you're a southern Californian born before 1963.

No, that's what it morphed into. Didn't start out that way.

You realize the 101 went to San Diego
You'd prefer to eat at a "B" ethnic restaurant than an "A" ethnic restaurant.
I know that LA's Wrigley Field was used for the sports TV show " Home Run Derby" ( winter of 1959-60).

I'm still not an Angelino, though. I've shoveled WAY too much snow.

You know what a bumper thumper is.

You turn your headlights on in tribute.

You know who Kathy Fiscus was. And still feel sad.

You ask for a choc choc half half in a freeway cup for breakfast.

You got a coupon for a free burger from Carl himself.

You know that Moon shots had nothing to do with NASA.

You still call them zorries.

You keep a wrench next to the gas shut off valve.

You are on Team Lucy or Team Kate.

Your roof had an antenna pointed towards Mt. Wilson.

Your mom went to Month End at the Broadway.

You grew up in a house that had rocks on the roof.
