California is a really REALLY big state... so most of us probably don't have a clue.

But, if I had to guess.

They don't need undies in Rivertuckey. The place is a shat hole to start with. Undies wouldn't help.

You know what? If California were to sink into the ocean I'd prefer going down with my State rather than having to live somewhere else. We rule, you drool.

Being pretty new to California myself, I have a cautious curiosity what earthquakes feel like.. I'm sure I'll find out soon enough..  :uhoh
