Just south of I-10
It covers both sides here in San Antonio. But then, the new International language here is Arabic, Hindu, or whatever language the Middle Easterners speak. I don't live far from USAA, and there's a bunch of apartment complexes on the other side of I-10 where all these 'contractors' live. It's fun to go by there in the morning because you see them all walk across this crossing bridge in 'herds' going to work.

South of I-10 works if you include the cities it runs through.

I know we don't like 'em in Vegas! They clog up the I-15 on Fridays and Sundays. :)
Vegas only exists because of California....Very few people are "from vegas" maybe you were born there but your parents were probably not. If the 15 was demolished Vegas would cease to exist...Actually its starting too already

You hear texas is going to have a new slogan?

Been to Dallas lately? I lived up there back in the 80's, and couldn't even find a place to buy a breakfast taco. Now you got Farmers Branch in the national spotlight because they tried to implement an 'English Only' policy and require proof of citizenship when renting apartments in their town. Think they're just a little north of I-10.

USSA just announced they're closing their California location and moving 1000 positions to San Antonio...

It does not matter who is running what. Stop being so concerned with what party is running what....the point is that even Texas is experiencing job losses that are going to be affecting the economy here. Countrywide employees alot of people in this state....Capitol one cut it's workforce here in half and BNSF is a huge employer both here in the Dallas area as well as Houston. Raytheon while holding at the moment without too much impact on its payroll just lost out on a couple of really big contracts. I am also noticing a massive slow down in homebuilding here. Unemployment claims in the state continue to rise. No one is immune.

It seems to be the only state where you can fly the mexican flag above the U.S.A. flag and get away with it. People are more worried about the enviroment and immigrants then their own people. Just makes no sense to me. Can't wait for the big quake to drop them off the map. A little harsh I know but I really don't care.

If you've never been there don't complain. I visit So. Cal. every year and if I could find a job there making enough money to compare with this crappy place i'd be there in a heartbeat. I don't even remember what the sun looks like anymore. You can stereotype all you want, but there are just as many rules and regulations in the North Eastern States that limit all kinds of noise, air, water pollution.

Finally something nice
I really love SoCal and I can't wait to move back. The lifestyle out there suits me best, I also kinda like all the rules and regulations.
