    Rolled into Oakland yesterday evening. Staying at a buddies apartment right now but found a house to rent up in Richmond (on a golf course).

    BTW if you know who drives a Red Taco with a black rear bumper, TRD Norcal sticker and black rims I saw you on the 505/880 split to Bay area and Sac. I was in the black 4Runner with a ARB bar.

    hope you're packing!

    You ever see the Simpson's episode where they were in SF? Somehow they fell off a bridge.

    Lisa: "The ocean is dragging us out! Swim to shore!"
    Homer: "Pfft, what are we, made of money? Swim to Oakland"

    some parts of Oakland flat out kick ass. great restaurants. great bars. all in all, i like the east bay the best. richmond hills are very nice. kilted chicken..have a great time there.

    a friend of mine like an idiot got pulled over for a DUI..the oakland cops drove him home. they have no time for non gang bangers. but my buddy lives in west oakland..which is HELL!
