WTF! You need to get out more. I'm from Ca and been all over the US and
several other parts of the Big Blu Marble and I live in MN USA now. And I
have yet to find the average person as bad as you say when I extend my
hand
and say hello. Get out more and you'll find people for the most part are
ok.
Yes I,ve gotten teased about being from Ca but its all in gest. I like
when
they ask if I own a gerbil and I say no, I prefer hamsters

Excellent point Mr. Hill, I'm constantly jumping up on strangers,
smiling and asking them how they like their burger or if they really
think the line were in is, just the right size. Almost without
exception you'll get a smile, a chuckle or a nod of the head BUT
this **** FREAKS my old lady out. It embarrasses her and makes her
feel uncomfortable. How can engaging a fellow human being in
silly conversation for a moment or two be bad?
**** If I do nothing else in life but make a person or two, grin or
laugh, then I think I've helped ease the pain in the world a little
or at least in that persons life.

I guess that's why she's working on being my ex-old lady.

PS. Oh and another two things
I'm also NEVER suppose to talk to or start conversations in elevators

and

There is 1 out of 10 people that when you pull my silliness will just
look at
you with disgust and not play with me, but i just figure they have
broken their
funny bone and try and think a good thought for them and move on.
