[QUOTE=blondebear] Let me know when you’re in Sunnyvale. I’m 15 minutes down the road. [/QUOTE] And I work in Sunnyvale. We need to get something set up. ---

[QUOTE=Hostile Dialect] Well, we just _might_ have an emergency on our hands if **Encinitas** goes around snortin’ stuff! [/QUOTE] She also stated that in an emergency she’d do LA, which is a larger population center than Dallas. Something you need to tell us, **Encinitas**? And as to avoid completely hijacking the thread with further accusations of depravity, I’d be one of those interested in any LA area dopefests that pop up. So to speak. ---
