The Coffee House

For the record, my dislike of Tom Brady has nothing to do with me being from NY. He's got a very unattractive personality. Like I said, he's a tool.

i am surprised he is still at it. Getting a little old and beat up to be playing ball isn't he?

That's the game with the brown, pointy ball?

Yes, unfortunately. It might have been a good game once upon a time, but it is just ridiculous these days.

Here's a shot of the snow this morning.

If the roads weren't poopy I might have gone to the local ski hill today. I don't have a season pass this year, so I won't be going even though I like skiing in falling snow.

That's the game with the brown, pointy ball?

Yeah, pointy on both ends. For important games it may appear smaller than normal.

Nice snow ... it will be another perfect day here.

Perfect for you "Valley Boys".

Gary, do you live in the Valley? What part?

Gary, do you live in the Valley? What part?

No. Presently I live in La Mirada, a sleepy burg about 20 miles southeast of Los Angeles. (West of Fullerton and south of Whittier.) I've never lived in the Valley. Most of my adult life I've lived a few blocks from the beach, (Huntington, Manhattan and Palos Verdes).

No Super Bowl here............. don't really keep up with pro football anymore

Is that today? I've got to go to the grocery store so it won't be crowded id I wait until it's started.

We lived in Bell Gardens for a few months then Norwalk about 5 years then Downey for another three years. I worked for LA Water & Power for about 8 years. I don't think I ever went into La Mirada.

We get that here on "game days". Actually, it's still an inconvenience because the grocery store parking lot is filled with the cars of people who park there and walk to the stadium.

I bet you have. La Mirada butts up to Norwalk on the east. Norwalk ends and La Mirada begins around Valley View Blvd. If you traveled on Imperial Highway or Rosecrans or Alondra east of Valley View you're in La Mirada. (West of Beach and East of Valley View down to the 5 is La Mirada.)

My construction company had an annual contract with DWP (water side). Everything they torn up, we repaired (the paving part, DWP would backfill and we would pave).

 

[Designer]

You're right, I certainly could have. We lived a block off of Imperial Highway in Norwalk.
(edit) Then when we moved to Downey, we were one block off Firestone Blvd.

I worked in Overhead Distribution, power line clearance tree trimmer. I think I may have worked out of every OHDist. office they had.
