It turns out I'll be relocating to the west coast at the end of this summer. San Francisco here I come. Among the various life-changing decisions and issues this has triggered...it has occured to me that I might have to retire Cambridge and take on a new, more fitting moniker. Something befitting my newer, more laid back, avacado eating identity. Either that or I may just become George Oscar Bluth II. Any suggestions?

Only if I can spell it with one of those backward ks they have in the cyrillic alphabet or some great acronym like PROTBAH. Now that sounds soviet.

By the way, those of us Southern Californians don't consider San Fran to be "west coast." In a similar way, Connecticut is on double secret "New England" probation for an alarming presence of Yankee fans in the western part of the state.

Before anyone takes me too seriously, I love San Fran and the area. I think its insane and criminal that the municipal government uses tax dollars for city workers to have sex changes, but yeah, it has a lot going for it that SoCal lacks. But about Connecticut, dead serious. You are on the bubble. You can either be TriState or New England. Make up your mind and be on your way.

In a similar way, Connecticut is on double secret "New England" probation for an alarming presence of Yankee fans in the western part of the state. The thing is, almost everyone lives in the western part of CT. As far as population goes, Connecticut is much more "Tri-State" than "New England" but we try to get the most out of both associations  |

As I am fortunate enough to go to Fishers Island quite often (off the coast of New London/Mystic) I also would like to state my preference for Eastern CT. As for the Western half of the state...well, I have often fallen asleep during car rides into New York only to wake up in the lowest circle of Hell. Then I realize it's worse...it's Bridgeport. |

Yeah, Bridgeport pretty much sucks as much as anything can.

Seriously had to spend a week in Hartford. Staying at what was supposed to be one of the nicer hotels. Someone at the hotel, who worked the desk, stole me credit card and went on a shopping spree at Walmarts all over the South. That was the highlight of the week.

NeverLandHoya... CripHoya... BloodHoya... LandoftheHybridHoya... C'mon, that's all Los Angeles stuff. It's a good four and a half hours on a fastest freeway from SF to LA. If I moved to DC no one would suggest me changing my name to StatueofLibertyHoya. Cambridge, welcome to the Bay Area. It is different, but no one I know has ever hated it. You'll like it. As someone who has considered moving recently, I also know the pain of a Geographically based handle. |
