They're only going to take a little when they need it. Honest. Promise. Riiiiight.

I say shut off the taps and let LA survive as a desert community... if it can.

Actually, most of the Los Angeles area of Southern California is best described as a "Mediterranean" climate, NOT, as you incorrectly posted, a "scrub desert."

We don't want a bigger government; We want a government that does a few BIG things, and does them right.

If you think that you can cut it, if you think you got the time, they'll only give you one chance, better get it right first time. 'Cause in this game you're playin, if you lose you got to pay. And if you make just ONE wrong move, you'll get BLOWN AWAY!
