Default Well its a go I am moving out of CO headed to LA area.

Well after 20 years with a major airline, just hit with a layoff. I landed another job in LAX with another major. Starting all over but oh well.

Looking forward to the elevation and nice weather. Cars going to run even better.

Ryne/CMS going to need your help.

Any info on areas to stay away from when it comes to living? Lived there 10 years ago but things have changed. Commute is not a big problem, last one there was LAX to Santa Clarita Valley. I don't really want to do that one again.

Chris

Looking forward to the elevation, nice weather, high living cost, stupid retarded smog laws, and stupid people everywhere. Cars going to run even better.

Why do you live here? No offense intended, but it sounds like you hate it.

It's always a love/hate relationship with Cali. But I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
