    Man, I still wear Dickies shorts with crew socks, flat bill and DCs. I went to college out in the 909.

    I’d rather not list. My wife might see it.
    A motorcycle Monrovia PD officer gave me a verbal warning about my uncovered ditch lights and roof-rack light bar 3 weeks ago. He mistakenly pulled me over thinking I had both ears covered with headphones. He said they were enforcing distracted driving infractions. I had white gauze on my left ear due to a cut from my barber.

    The officer was actually pretty cool. He was apologetic but of course he needed to say something to save face. He said that it is unlikely that you’ll be pulled over just because of the lights. They will have a primary cause for the stop then the lights just added on to the citation.

    I still prefer the look of being uncovered but it’s not worth the hassle since I frequent the roads of Monrovia. It’s a small town so it is more than likely I’ll run across the same cop again.

    Those are not pictures I took FYI. (That'd be creepy) :rofl:

    I do most of my surfing in either La Jolla area... (Shores, Blacks, some of the reefs) or up in No. County... Encinitas.

    When we do play volleyball now it's on the grass at Mission Bay... my sand legs are gone. :(

    Oh yeah, I bet. That's closer to it than me, and it shook pretty good here in Kearney Mesa.

    I talked to one friend in Ramona, and another in Borrego, and they said it was a doozy.

    I discovered what might be the strangest place to be during an earthquake...

    Sitting on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. :rofl:I was like "Really, this is where they're gonna' find me?!" :(

    Wife was a medic for SD fire. Apparently that’s a common thing, bearing down on the throne = heart attack.
    I pray I don’t go out like that.
