Reason #6, #7, #8 & #9

Comes from our friend and native scarberian Catherine Hernandez:

The only place in the world where you might hear Snap's I've Got the Power as a ring tone. Parking spaces are nice and wide so that people can park crooked. Tearing out someone's extensions is the biggest insult in the world. The patties at Warden station are folded and not mass produced. Nuff said.

Reason # 5

Stores that make no sense.

Gotta love Nana Banana fashions. Last month when I drove by there were a million different television sets from the 70/80/90's in the window. Why? we'll never know. There are probably thousands of stores like this here, they stay paying their rent lord only knows why. They add to the overall, i'll do whatever the f*ck I want with what's mine attitude that makes this such a glorious place to live.

Reason #4

Peoples completely innocent disregard for basic rules. Whaddaya mean I can't throw this can of paint and bag full of batteries into the recycling bin?

Reason #3

Dim Sum at Perfect Chinese Restaurant. You can feed you and an entire army or small country for under $10.00.

Reason #2

The virtual plethora of Dollar Stores. Period. That is all.

Reason #1

The Bluffs - pure beauty down in the ghetto. And you can find the occasional unsmoked doobie in the sand among other treasures. I once found a broken Ganesh figure that had washed up on the sand, my dog Cello tried to eat it, that can't be good for his karma.
